Any flight schools hiring CFI's?

[Tailwind]

I don't have the CFI-I yet, just got the commercial. I have heard that some schools will put you at the top of their hiring pool if you get the CFI-I with them.
Is that accurate?

Do you know of any flight schools who are looking for full time CFI's?

Thanks for any help.

good luck.

FWIW I've found that putting on a shirt and tie and going to all school's you'd like to work at with a well written resume is your best bet. I did that the weekend after I passed my initial CFI and had 2 offers by the end of the day.

What area are you looking? I know a joint in the Dallas area looking to hire 2-3 full-timers.

It is interesting that when i was on the other side of the aviation as a CFI trying to find some work, it was the hardest thing to do. Now that i am on the hiring end, finding a good CFI is a very hard thing.. Your best bet it will be a place where you get your training.. They will now you.. As a school owner I 'd hire someone that they got their training from me in a heartbeat unless that person is a jerk..

For me the #1 priority is the personality. Safety comes right close second..

Good luck

You're right, most companies hire according to ones personality; they keep them due to their performance.

I dunno, I can only seem to find jobs when I'm not looking, but then I don't need it.
