Airline hiring

Like I said just have your apps up to day, you never know.

Sorry Up to date. And it is just good advice. If these rest rules change, we all are going to need bodies. Some more than others.

no1pilot2000:

It's the same as interviewing for any other competitive position. Interviewers want somebody who will be a good employee and will get along with others.

I would like to expand on that and emphasize this order.

1. Can fly an airplane in all situations safely and efficiently.

2. Shows up to work.

3. Gets along with others.

I was going to add some others but I wanted to keep the list simple.

Most airlines that are hiring are popular.

Isn't that the truth!

WHAT non-flying qualities does the recruiting powers that be at Southwest determine whether or not to hire a person to fly for the company?

Being related to the Chief pilot.

If you meet the companies stated qualifications good things on your resume are things like volunteer/charitable work, being active in your community (not to be confused with community organizer) What you’ve done with your free time besides de-flower virgins.

It also helps if you know how to spell "company's."

If you want to get hired, don't wear a mickey mouse tie unless you are that type of person.

I'm going to take that one step further...don't wear a Mickey Mouse tie. An airline interview in not the place to show how wacky and zany, you think you are.

Doooode,

I am not giving/nor looking for financial advice from a bunch of anonymus dip******************** pilots. I was just giving some factual/historical numbers refuting some narrowminded, rightwing, faux news watchin, rush limburgh listn, teabag ball licken glenn becken, nutjob. There are plenty or (a lot, alot) of places to get better financial advice then here. The point I was trying to make is that this mess, storm whatever you want to call it did not start in January, despite what the rightwing media tells you.

+1 on that sentiment.

You are not wrong... It will be far longer than anyone around here thinks (at least before any of the decent airlines hire in any significant numbers again.)

The economy is still a serious wreck, the dollar is dropping faster than Gen Lee's sister's pink panties, and Obama is doing everything he can to ensure that we wind up as a second-rate two-bit POS european style economy.... (Just spreading the misery around.)

These silly experiments with socialism have been tried before, and they have always wrecked every country they were applied to. The turning point will come when the political winds change. When we get some people in congress who have some inkling of an idea that the resources of our government are not limitless, things will pick up. As long as nancy, barney, and barak are continuing this insane spending orgy, things are gonna really, really suck.

-It is gonna be a while. A long, long while.

(Barak Hussein Obama, mmmm, mmmm, moron.)

now that there is funny.....probably because it`s true....ha ha ha

Like Canada, what a wreck that place is...

The root cause of the financial meltdown is simple: Social engineering. once the govt. started trying to force banks to "loosen up lending rules" so that everyone could have a shot at "the american dream," things began to fall apart. Eventually, the banks couldn't find any investors stupid enough to buy the securities backed with their crazy loans, the govt stepped in and had Freddie and Fannie buy them, then turn around and sell them as repackaged bonds to nations who actually have money these days-like Saudi Arabia, UAE, Jordan, and China.

The meltdown is simple-the system tried to correct itself, tried to work out all the riff-raff companies, but unfortunately, the worst of the riff-raf was Freddiie and Fannie themselves. This whole mess was created because Clinton, Barney, Chris Dodd, and all sorts of other libs wanted to make everyone fell better about themselves. People feel real good when they can take out 125% on a house with no downpayment, get a 3-yr interest-only loan and go buy the biggest, badest Escalade wih 28" rims..... And some sweet pimped-out gold teeth-with little diamonds implated in them. They feel real good for just about 3 years.

-Guess who wants to "loosen lending standards" again, and "open up lending to disadvantaged people again?" Hint: It ain't W.

You should leave the thinking to smart people...
