Any "Latest & Greatest" About Atlas?

[JonnyKnoxville]

I count 47 new-hires in the vacancy bid that was published today.

Lots of hiring going on right now.

Just had a call from a friend and he brought up a topic that is not covered on any Atlas thread that I could find: UAV experience.

This pilot had done 13 hour UAV missions with 4 guys in a box (kind of like being stuck in the sim for 13 hours). He wondered if he could use that on the PAQ? I called MIA, and they told me to have the pilot put it down. They also said to put his UAV time on his resume...just make sure it was marked UAV. They also said they would look into updating the process to accommodate for more and more guys with UAV experience.

What's the pay while going through training? How much can one expect to make first and second year? How many hours of pay is a normal month?

Start at the beginning...answers to these and just about any other question that may occur are in there.

 

[FRACTRASH]

Where can I get the name and number of the person in charge of pilot hiring? This way I can put their name on my cover letter.

Dude...that ship already sailed. Thousands of apps. But you never know I guess. I just put company name on CVs. Its all HR driven now. Do you think Capt Joe Schmo will actually see it?
Side note - If you have a training failure forget about it....:bawling:

Would that include a pink slip on my ME rating 20 years ago for failing a maneuver? Retook the next day and passed.

From what I understand, NO.

I pinked my initial CFI, was asked on the phone screen, it didn't matter. Was asked again in the interview if I failed any check rides. Again, told them about my CFI. Their response, "we don't care about that".

I gather it's ANY training failure involved with an air carrier, 135, frac, military, what have you.

 

[CCDiscoB]

The question on the NMPS form asks if you ever had any training failures. The question is can that pink slip be tracked?

Ok that is how my experience went as well. Still waiting though...

I know this question has been asked indirectly before but i want to get the most current information. If an Atlas pilot's domicile was SFO how many days a month could he expect to spend at home. I know I'm going to get beaned for asking the question, but I did it anyway. So there.

I am pretty sure they dont hire liberal hippies from SFO. You have to be able to talk about guns and cars about how much Obama f*&ked over the country to fly frieight.

Any synopsis from people in the know, as to how much interviewing and hiring Atlas is doing right now? What type of folks are getting the call for interviews? I am over at K4 and I know lots of us have apps in at Atlas and I only know of one individual who received a phone interview and he didn't get a follow up. I have talked to Southern guys and the same there. I would think Atlas would look to hire experienced pilots but what do I know.

 

[tubineotter]

tt, U would be wrong atlas HR wants to hire under 34 college educated peeps they can manipulate easily during the next round of money talks. but its a buyers market and im just bitter from interviewing ther 3 times and not getting hired. oh well rant over
