Nike has a Falcon 2000EX (non-EASy) and 2 G-V's. They just picked up a (pre-owned) G-V last week. It will definately help your chances with Nike if you are typed in the G-V. They need pilots yesterday.

Hey G100...if Nike is hiring yesterday, I would be interested in getting my resume to them the day before. I went to their website, and found nothing in aviation...do you know the contact info? GREATLY appreciated...

I went to their website, clicked on jobs, typed in Pilot, and 2 listings came up. Not too terribly difficult. What did you do to not get the same result?

Hawker...you da man!!!

I've seen a Falcon 2000 around GRR out of Alticor's hangar. Sharp paint job, dark bottom with beige top 2/3. I don't know what else they fly, but I bet the FAA registry does.

Hmm, I only found this Hawker in the Registry. Guess the Falcon could have been someone else's.

Has anyone tried applying to Hershey's on their website? I filled everything out and submitted my app. but it returned a message saying I don't meet their requirements. I'm pretty sure I exceed(by a lot) all their requirements but it won't let me reapply and can't find out how to contact them to find out the problem. The 800 number is busy.

Anyone else have this problem? Suggestions?

 

[KSUPILOT]

ever thinnk you may be over qualified?

 

[AA717driver]

What's the pay and QOL at Nike? NO, NO, NO! Stop it! Bad AA717driver! TC

P.S.--Seriously, what do they start out at? Just asking for a GV rated friend.

I ran into the exact same problem. Just got home from a trip and had an email from them asking me to come back and fill it out again and apoligizing for their computer errors. If you signed up, you should have received that same email. Let me know if you didn't and I'll forward it over to you. Good luck to you.

Anyone have any idea about the QOL at Nike? I heard that you are expected to work in the office when you are not flying--just wondering if that is the case.
