American Eagle hiring minimums

[English]

They've now been lowered to 1000 TT, 100 multi. That's right, 100 multi.

Thanks for the heads-up, but what's your source? Posted is still 1200/200...

I read it on www.eaglelounge.com then verified it with an American Eagle check airman today.

I wouldn't question our favorite female poster since as soon as you hit 1500TT she knows those So.Cal operators that can get you into the left seat of a Citation Jet.

never burn dem bridges...

Lighten up, no need for the attitude. Aren't we all here for the same reason, to help others and learn a little as well?

Anyway, back on topic...I just verified the info a second time, at www.americaneaglecareers.com. Definitely 1000 TT, 100 multi now.

What are they going to do next? Do like they did back in the old sailing days and put something in your grog while you're sitting at the tavern getting your drink on?

One minute you're talking to some slice, drinking a beer and enjoying the moment...next thing you know, you'll wake up in some stinky ATR with somebody cracking a whip on your behind, yelling at you to do some work and reminding you your new name is Toby.

Hey English,

I called and spoke w/ Greg about 2 weeks ago and he said the mins were 1200/200. The only exception to the 1200 were university grads. If the mins were lower, someone needs to inform him.

Thanks for the heads up, English

The mins were lowered yesterday.

Things like this happen. They are having a hard time getting enough applicants, so they lowered the mins. Be flexible.

Gee. I can't imagine why they can't get applicants.

It's even worse than that. Someone on aviationinterviews.com posted the following today:

Date of interview 2004-07-28
Were you hired as a result of this interview? yes
Total flight time: 870
PIC flight time: 600
PIC TURBINE flight time: 0
Instrument flight time: 50
Total multi engine flight time: 110

I think that is a "bridge" person.

Minimums for regular folks are still 1000/100.

If you are called for an interview, be sure to ask why the website says reserves can expect 10 to 12 days off when in reality it's always 10. That's a big difference. Make sure you do your homework and don't believe everything the website says about quality of life issues and upgrade time. In AMR's eyes, desperate need of pilots calls for desperate actions.

For those of us who don't know, what the heII is a 'bridge' person?

If you graduated from an "aviation college" with an approved bridge program, eagle hires you at like 500/50 (whatever the rediculous numbers are...I don't know for sure). It's basically preferential hiring for graduates of certain colleges (Purdue, Embry Riddle, UND, etc etc)

Hi
I was wondering if somebdy working at Eagle could show us his schedule for a typical month and how many nights can you expect to be home.
thanks
