[MILPILOT]

Has anyone who interviewed with NJA on Apr 4,5,11,12 been contacted by Linda about indoc dates and AC selection?

 

[lr23sic]

I am not sure about the guys around the 12th but the 3/4 interview dates were postponed. Still waiting to reschedule

 

[starlifter27]

I was in the 11-12th interview class, those that wanted to got yay or nay emails but no phone call with class dates yet that I know of...

 

[Stewie Griffin]

What were the "application recieved" dates for these interviews?

Thanks.

 

[starlifter27]

I got the application right around X-mas time and turned it in just before New Years. I got the "application received" email the first week in Feb. The email offering an interview date was only about 8 days out because apparently they had a couple late drop outs. I don't know what the "normal" timing is on all this stuff, I can tell you I had three internal letters of rec, so I don't know if how long I waited was normal or sped up....

 

[Stewie Griffin]

Thanks for the info. Anybody still waiting for PBI?

 

[stingray]

it takes a while to get an interview for PBI, around 6 months or more.

 

[RJ Bum]

Took me about 10

I see you flew volpars, anyone who did that is okay by me. I have 2500 hours in them. Great airplane.

I was in the Apr 10-11 group. Got the good e-mail, but nothing yet about classes. It seems that lately it has been about 2 weeks from interview til the phone call, so should hear something this week hopefully.

Stewie, my app was accepted 10/17. TEB was my first choice.

Congrats dude...I just sent in app last week with TEB as 1st choice, so its good to know their hiring. Let us know what a/c and indoc date.

Fingers/Toes crossed.

 

[MILPILOT]

Got app in the mail late Jan, they received it 4 Feb, interview invite 8 March, interviewed 4 Apr, good news 16 Apr, waiting to hear about AC and indoc...I listed LAX, DAL, CMH in that order. I'm fairly sure "LAX" helped out.

 

[Stewie Griffin]

Thanks flyfish...Still waiting for PBI, app was accepted first of October...

 

[MILPILOT]

Pbi, Teb

FWIW, In my interview group of 8 (4 Apr) there were 4 who listed TEB 1st, and 1 guy who listed PBI first...

 

[starlifter27]

It appears the group of people that interviewed in the first two weeks of April are getting calls now. Most of my group (Apr 12) got called in the past two days. I got my call yesterday for a 400XP in CMH with June 4th indoc. I may have been the only CMH of the 5 of us that got hired. Most of the other domicilie folks have indoc in July or August, with one TEB guy doing indoc in June with me, so your mileage may vary. Good luck to everyone!

 

[dudemize]

Just got the call!

Excel, TEB, June 4th indoc.

I also had the option for the 400xp or Ultra. I would have been happy with any of them but went for the differences pay.

Also have a May 9 A320 class at JetBlue so will have to decide pronto but I'm thinking NJA.

Good choice. Compaired to the XL, the other two sux.
Good luck with the JB/NJA choice.

Congrats. With the differences pay and APU, it really isn't a hard decision.

I hope you let us know which one you go to.

I have talked to some JB guys recently. They are losing about 30/month. Most of the FOs are realizing that they will never see the left seat of the A320. And those that want LGB base, will never see that as well.

But also realize that NJ upgrades are going real slow now. I can only hope that I will upgrade within 5 yrs of employment.

Not sure what the 5 yr pay comparison looks like, but most 5+ yr captains at NJ are getting around $130,000 or more, on the reserve schedule.

Good luck in your decision.

Dear Flight Gods...please let me get that interview and job offer. I promise not to go to any more strip clubs or drink too much or look at FBO girls.

Okay, about the promises, can we forego those and just get me the job?

Your faithful servant, Amen.
