Did XOjet stopped hiring?

Do they hire direct captains, if so, what is requirements?

And of course how much $$$ first year?

......

No they didn't. Just interviewed 5 today, 5 more next week. We've got 4 to 6 seats reserved in every initial class at FlightSafety Toledo for 2008.

Yes they do, sorta. You'll start out as an SIC and upgrade as soon as you're up to speed on the company procedures. Requirements? Significant time in type as captain.

Pay...45-50 as SIC, 90 as PIC. Long awaited payscale is in the final stages of approval.

t-bone,

If you know about xojet, can you post their hiring mins? I'm sorta interested in those guys but I don't know much about them. Thanks.

minmums

Looks like they're working on the website so the minimums aren't currently posted. Check www.xojet.com under company information and the breakdown of the minimum requirements will hopefully reappear. Last I saw, we're looking for 2000 hours TT for SIC and 3500 TT for PIC. Sorry i don't have the multiengine/PIC/turbine breakdowns for you.

What's the sked?

Is XOJet going to go back to flying 900's?

Is XOJet going to go back to flying 900's?

Good question. I don't think anyone knows yet. We will add large cabin aircraft to the fleet in the next few years. What they will be is hard to say. Could be Falcons, Globals, or G's. It is certainly possible one or two could come sooner, but that would be a case by case kind of thing until the company decides to focus on the large cabin market.

My guess is you will see one 900 here in the near future, but that's just pure speculation.

Didn't the total time mins use to be 1500tt? I meet everything else but 500 short of the total time...is it worth it to apply?

What other equipment do they own/manage and plan on hiring into?

How many do they plan on hiring?

What is the culture like? Dot comish? (in a positive way)

Can a new-hire choose the schedule 9/7 or 17/15 on day one? Are you able to switch between the two?

Thanks in advance.

Yes I would still apply with your times. Right now we are hiring only to the Citation X. The fleet is growing with 2 deliveries a month right now and expected to have 20 by December. Plans are for more deilveries next year. I heard that we have all training slots booked up in Toledo through 08.

We also have 2 King Air 350's, and a Premeir but they are well staffed.

Atmosphere is not dot comish. The main office is near San Fran but flight ops is in Sacramento (2 hour drive). Open door with DO and Chief pilot and they are there 24 hours if you really need them. The pilots are a good bunch and have a good time at work. Management will have off-sites to keep the pilots in the loop. I've worked in this busniess for 22 years and I can say its one of the more professionally run operations.

As for Schedule, you can choose anyone that you wish. Switching between them is possible. 17 days is a long time to be away! I work the 9/7 and I am RARELY away for all 9 days. Great Layovers and we have a company credit card so NO per diem.

Hope This helps,
