Northwest Fortune 100 company has a new job posting at planejobs.com today. I am not a member, but curious who this company is. Anyone here know?

I was wondering the same thing...looks like they might have a BBJ, GV and/or a Falcon 50 as well as some smaller aircraft.

anyone??

Based on my research of last year's Fortune 500, the only Seattle company in the top 100 was Washington Mutual. However, I know nothing about their flight department, or whether they even have one for that matter.

OK

 

[JetSpeed219]

You say Northwest, is it in Seattle, or somewhere else like Portland area?

 

[jergar999]

Nike?

Just a guess. I know nothing.

2 pure guesses but Alberstson's, and if you include "Fortune 100 best places to work" a certain coffee company comes to mind.

 

[Rythm3]

Could be Microsoft.

 

[Okaythen]

I'm assuming Seattle because the fax number was a Seattle number. Of course, I'm somewhat suspicious of these "confidential" internet job postings; it's probably just someone collecting addresses and phone numbers for some marketing scheme. By the way, I did some more research, and it looks like Microsoft, Costco, and Weyerhaeuser are actually the Seattle companies in the top 100. Washington Mutual is at 103.

OK

 

[murfdawg998]

What about Starbucks?? do they have a flight dept?

 

[billy2331]

just a little surprised that a fortune 100 organization would have to go to the internet to find pilots. you'd think those already there would have some of their own contacts.

 

[Okaythen]

I agree Billy, and like I said earlier, I'm dubious of these online postings...but who knows.

Also, Starbucks is 425, and Nike is 184 on the Fortune 500.

OK

 

[JetSpeed219]

I heard a rumor that Intel was looking for pilots.............

Probably not Albertson's. Boise Cascade is handling their flight department now...

Washington Mutual or Weyerhauser might be good guesses. Sky King is right about Albertsons - they're through Boise Cascade. It's not Costco, and Microsoft apparently doesn't have a flight deptartment exactly; the individuals mostly have their own planes. With the airplanes listed by English, it's not Starbucks, and I'm pretty sure it's not Intel as they run E135's managed by ExecJet mgmt. I'm guessing WM or Weyerhauser only because I have no idea what they fly, but I'm getting suspicious too... might just be a name/address collection scam.

Thanks for all the ideas though...

I'm fairly certain Weyerhauser doesn't run a Gulfstream or a BBJ. Falcons in the northwest, and Citations in the south.

 

[gear_guy]

It's almost more fun listening to everyone guess than to actually know who it is. Have we exhausted all the options yet?

 

[some_dude]

I would think Boeing would be a possibility. I know they moved their headquarters to Chicago, but I would guess they still have some corporate flight operations at BFI. And, last I heard they had Challengers and (of course) a BBJ.

Also could be a satellite operation for another Fortune 100 company headquartered elsewhere.

 

[Computer Geek]

Starbux has a post on the NBAA yesterday... I am betting its them.

Washington Mutual

WAMU recently had a lower than expected earnings picture due to interest rate hedging. They may also become a takeover candidate. I would vote that the job is with Starbucks. Just a guess though.

Faxed these folks a resume. A week later got a letter from Jet Professionals telling me to apply online at their website. Funny thing is they don't list this job on their site. Go figure.

Could be Vulcan, Paul Allens group

Vulcan has its own website for recruiting for the flight department.

www.privatecompanyjobs.com

probably not them if Jet Pro is doing the interviewing.
