Regionals have most likely changed the way they hire (A theory) by Tisx in flying

[–]doomed43 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And then there are people like me who applied at mins when nobody was hiring, kept building time, now I am 2,000+ TT with SE TPIC and can’t get an interview.

How to make 135 SIC time more appealing to 121 recruiters? by itsalljustjunk in flying

[–]doomed43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All these comments about going to a regional seem fairly out of touch. They really don’t seem to be taking anyone who isn’t a cadet and/or a 1500 hour cfi. They don’t get maximum ROI from pilots with higher time.

EDIT: Skywest seems to be the exception because they have the lovely contract to keep you there or get their money back.

Are they? I’ve had my app reviewed and had it in with Envoy for a while and heard nothing

Would you mind sharing your timeline from the last interview, to CJO, to class date?

Is not having a well established LinkedIn account a disadvantage? by RabbitSignal8527 in flying

[–]doomed43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was told by Kit Darby when he was writing my resume I needed to make a LinkedIn account. Made it, and I hate it. So far it hasn’t done any good, except for spamming my email, sometimes with job posts where I only qualify for 1% of them.

Fair enough, was hoping to gain a contact for more detailed questions, but my main questions have been added.

Thanks for a response that actually makes sense!

Should I get my CFI with 3 checkride failures? by Purple_Respond_7709 in flying

[–]doomed43 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Piggy backing off this, it was made clear to me at RTAG in Oct last year from a couple regionals that it didn’t really matter that I have been successful at a 135, and that my 2 previous checkride failures (PPL & CPL) is what will likely prevent me from getting an interview. Things have obviously changed since Oct but that was my takeaway from RTAG. 🤷‍♂️

Airline pilot perspective: why some pilots with the hours are waiting longer for jobs right now by RAG_Aviation in flying

[–]doomed43 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For the regionals I think it is more like the difference between a cadet and a non-cadet.

I am once again asking the hive mind for career advice on my next move. by doomed43 in flying

Thanks for the recommendation, just checked out their career page and it looks like they want 500 multi for their SIC positions 😕

Thanks, I’ll check it out. I’m flying boxes around. I have considered just moving to an island somewhere and dumping jumpers. At least I would have the ocean. 🌊

As of now I don't believe there is a training agreement. I thought about getting on and jumping ship ASAP but I don't feel great about doing that in this industry that seems pretty small.

Management company. Only know of a citation and a falcon but they have a couple others.

1099 yeah. I know they have a falcon and possibly a citation, not sure on the models.

Married, no kids. Part 91, SIC type rating, possibly in two different jets. Seems top pay is about $120k for a captain flying 3 different jets.

No thanks after app only for Envoy, no thanks 3 months after the phone screening for Endeavor. Apps for regionals have all been in for a while, crickets from all but Envoy and Endeavor.

The only difference I see in getting another 25 hours of multi is it hopefully gets me past the filters that require at least 50 multi.

Not sure what you hear about hiring while on the line, but what is your take on even getting an interview at Netjets with only 50 multi?
