Delta Mins = 1200?? Who is getting hired?

[buxflyr]

Delta's website currently shows mins of 1200, no PIC required, no ATP required. This sounds more like regional mins a few years ago. Is anyone in class with someone or knows someone who has been hired with these mins??

Delta's website might as well say you have to know someone as a prerequisite.

Those mins are for the military types. The regional guys getting hired have at least 3500 or more.

and if you fly corporate or 135 and are a delta legacy you have a snowballs chance in hell.

That doesn't even seem to help.

The published mins are low compared to guys like UPS, FedEx, and SWA. But nobody in my class had low time. I was one of the lowest time guys, me and the other military guy. However, most of our time is jet PIC 1 hour at a time!!! Had an ATP as well. Good luck to you.

qualifications are not a requirement in todays hiring.

it is all comes down to your birth right, either your the son or daughter of someone important or just born into an affirmative action group the HR department desires.

I know of a female regional FO hired with 1500 total and no turbine pic.
