Hawaiian is hiring!!

[landlover]

the real question is, how do we apply?

If you have to ask what the mins are and how to apply, You are not competitive.

I would think competitive mins would be around the 8-10,000 hr range with time in the 767. Lots of people like that on the street right now and more on the way. Sad but true.....

Don't know for sure, but I would guess most of the guys on the sreet are more likely guys with lots of RJ experience, who took a shot at some majors during the 2005-2008 hiring. Other than some TWA guys from 8-9 years ago, I don't know where a lot of guys with 767 time would be on the street from. Again, just guessing, but the guys on furlough from the majors/nationals, would be more likely to be 737/A320 type guys. That or very low time RJ guys on furlough from the regionals.

I could be wrong though, it did happen once before a long time ago .

I know that the HR dept. ranks the people they bring in to interview by a number of factors including TT, jet time, and types of aircraft flown. But I also know several people hired recently with maybe 3k or 4k hours. You also pretty much require a personal recommendation from a current HA pilot. A lot depends on your personality too, because since HR took over the hiring you have to go through a gauntlet of psych tests and interviews with HR and FA personnel. The big question is not only if you can fly the plane, but are you the type of person we wouldn't mind spending 12 hours with in the cockpit between HNL and SYD? This is Hawaii after all, and judging by our average HA pilot, you should be a good stick with a relaxed personality; arrogant a-holes needn't apply.

FA personel have input on pilot hiring? Are you serious! If only pilots could have input on FA hiring.... there would be a dramatic change!

C'mon now.... no need to be mean

 

[lookin4better]

If you applied last time they were hiring, you can sign in now on the company website and update all of your info/application/resume.

My guess would be if you dont have one online with them already, you will have to wait until they post the open position to start an application.

HAL , thanks for your informative comments!

Thanks HAL for all the info!

HAL & lookin4better thanks for the info. unfortunately I have never applied to hawaiian before.

Green(bloated ego)Banana,

after reading HAL's post I am quite competitive.

good luck to everyone.

Relax, I am just saying, If you have to ask what the minimum flight time is, then you don't have that much flight time to begin with. Hawaiian has always held internal recommendations extremely high, and rightfully so. Your contact on the inside will put you in touch with HR. It is just the way the game is played.

So HAL, the big questio
n now is how much do you charge to do an internal rec?

There are a lot of high time ATA guys on the street with international and Hawaii experience that would fit the bill very well.
