Air Wisconsin holding recruiting sessions

[gangdev]

Has anyone gotten a call back for an interview since going to the MEM information session? Any one...

I have a friend who went to the MEM recruitment session, and they told him to wait to january, i know that he hasn't heard anything yet. I went to the job session the week before in VA, and luckily got in for an interview. I think they are done with interviewing for now, but they did mention january.

Looking at aviationinterviews.com, shows they are hiring people with as low as 750tt. Any thoughts on why that is?

I think most of the low time pilots have CRJ Types or previous experience in other large aircraft.

You mean the A320 or the DC-10?

LOL

I thought Air Willy had more sense than to take guys from the "pilot mills"

The only problems that I saw where with high time guys. Maybe that's why they like low-timers - no bad habits?

They just hired a guy with 300+ hours and a CRJ type.

there were 3 guys in my class from NDU....they were the low time guys (i think the lowest was around 550 TT).....as for the rest of us....only one guy had flown a CRJ and he was not typed....the rest of us had either some 121 or 135 experience....but not necessarily a lot of time....it really seemed to be all about being relaxed but confident (obviously not cocky) in the interview...they did a great job of keeping a comfortable atmosphere during the entire thing.....training was the same way....obviously a ton of info....but never overwhelming

 

[masedogg19]

oh and there were no "pilot mill" types in class either

 

[Mayday911]

For the guys that just finished systems...where are they sending you for the sim training?

Mayday
