How many in the pool?

[Archer38416]

Does anyone have any idea how many pilots are in the hiring pool at Net Jets? I know there won't be any hiring there for some time, but curious how many are waiting for the call. Is NJ still interviewing and adding to the pool?

Like the scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, I don't know anything...

But I do not think you will see anything before the economy hits a bottom and starts to turn around.

I don't work there - but I have read other threads. Suggest you might try that next time.

NetJets doesn't really have a pool, best I can tell. They have not interviewed for several months, and have not told many of those interviewed yes or no. They - along with Flexjet and everyone else - have delayed deliveries and thus don't need as many pilots. Two of the four major fractionals have laid off, the other two are not hiring. This will probably not change for at least several months.

And I am sure you will hear about it here as soon as it happens.

Merry Christmas

Definitely no hiring. From HR in Columbus last week, 3000 resumes with at least one LOR on file.

The pool was used for last years recurrent. This years recurrent I was not notified to bring my bathing suit.

Gosh, this industry is so pathetic now. Almost like a Russian breadline.....

No idea.

Told in recurrent, no hiring for next year, yet also told we will have a net gain of well over 30 A/C next year. They must be those new UAV corporate jets.

I also had a guy waiting for a class told he will be given a February class date sometime soon after the holidays.

I guarantee their will be hiring. When? Sometime in the future.

Just out of curiosity, when was he told this?

LOL, I <3 Kit Darby...

Chapter 13 of the airinc manual should have advised getting a non-aviation degree...

First of all.... It is "there will be hiring"...

Secondly I would put a dinner on there not being a class in Feburary, unless there is a miracle in the economy and I won't hold my breath for that.

There is a CE750 initial class scheduled for Jan, 2009 at FSI in CMH. 6 or 8 was what I was told. That said, it's a lot easier for the company to have something and not need it (sim slots) than to need it and not have it. There was an initial class set for Dec too, and that obviously cancelled.

The only positive I see here is the fact this class has yet to be cancelled. Pure speculation, but if the powers that be were so sure these slots were not needed, I would think they would have given more notice to cancel them earlier. Then again, who knows what the cancellation policy is.

New equipment continues to show up though. N922QS was in the hangar two weeks ago with a whopping 18.5 hrs on the book. Looked like a new G200 as well. I remain cautiously optimistic, and wish all looking for new employment the best in the new year. The same goes for those hoping to remain employed.

Has Netjets delayed any aircraft deliveries that were scheduled for 2009? What is the latest on the Hawker deliveries?

 

[brokeflyer]

no, only the h4000, but that was ratheyon's mess up
