Any calls from XJT?

[EatSleepFly]

I got the call today March 2nd to fax in my resume. I applied Oct. 29th.

Hey sladude- did you ever call to renew your app. or whatever? Or did you just apply and leave it alone? Thanks...

 

[OrphicSeth]

For those who are keeping track: Got the intitial call on 3/3. Applied Late Oct. Called Peoplescout twice, once in Dec. and again in Jan. I believe. I am no longer interested in XJT for reasons I won't go into here, but I'm assuming this was the "send-in-your-resume" call. Good luck to those who are waiting! I'm sure your phone call will come, so hang in there!

calling them WILL NOT reset your app. date, only if you update your resume will it reset that date

 

[PA31Ho]

but if you update your resume it won't reset the app date right?

Update

No I dont believe that would reset your app date. But I couldnt swear to it...

 

[sladude]

I did call them and my app was NOT reset.

Here's a heads up,


better be flying multi-engines and getting around 10 to 15 hours a months for Dawn Daniel to ask you for an interview.

Exactly, and don't call dawn unless she calls you!!!

I have been told that upgrade will come down to about 3 yrs. There are guys uprading now that have just hit 4th yr.

Things can always change though.

I applied on 10/24 and updated my info a few times, got called 3/1 to fax a resume and on 3/4 got an automatic email from peoplescout that said there are no jobs availabe at this time for my qualifications and skills....
DOES THIS MEAN ANYTHING????
i thought after dawn asks for your resume the next thing was a phone interview and a possible invitation for the real one ... please reply
thanks

How much actual do you have? I have a buddy that was told the same thing because his actual time was to low. Good luck!

 

[Smiliner]

Which leads me to my next questions...

Pilot2674 - how much total/multi do you have?

Superpilot92 - how much actual do they want?

Thanks!

 

[PILOT2674]

118 ME and 32 actual, which i thought were more than they wanted.

 

[Superpilot92]

I am pretty sure that the mins for actual are 20. It used to be 40 so i am not sure what they want really. When i was hired i had between 73 hours actual. When i told her i had 73 she said "oh thats good" so take it for what its worth.

Not to rain on your parade--- but the industry is getting more competitive, and 118 multi might not really be competitive any more.

Keep plugging and flying.

 

[613ka]

i would also agree that 118 multi might be a little low, which could explain that email message that you got. Keep up the flying though, you just never know what could happpen next

How much total time do you have?

[AJL5236]

It seems that XJT is still calling the people that applied in Oct and Nov. Has anyone from the middle of November received a call? If so what are your times?
Thanks
