Naw...it's a reference to the "strong drafts" and "fumes and odors" that will be coming from the Captain. :D
 
I must agree that they need to retrain the HR and lawyer that wrote this help wanted ad. A search of this board has lots of HD info, plus a good thread on HR writing their pilot ads.

Anybody know what kind of equipment they operate? Seems like it was Citations of some variety, but I can't quite remember.

Nahhh, not Citations. But close. They operate Monte Carlos. At least they're both Chevys.

I had a Citation once, and I'm here to tell ya that it can't lap Daytona in 49secs.

DA50EX
DA900
Global Express
 
Are pilots expected to work part-time in the stores to compensate for low salaries? Do you have to wear a tool-belt in the cockpit?
 
If your not flying your sitting in the office talking to a bunch pilots talk about pilots. My theory is if you have to post a pilot posistion then there is a reason,,,,usually they cant find someone cause word on the street is the job ----
 
Can anyone approximate the pay for a starting FO and Captain (anyone know the range)? Would pilots generally start on the 50EX or could you possibly start on the 900 or Global? People are suggesting there is a bad vibe associated with the flight department - anything specific?

Seems like a strong company with tremendous growth (increased flying) and a great fleet.... Why shouldn't I consider an opportunity at Home Depot?

Earlier in the year I heard starting for a 50 FO was ~$75K/year. I've heard some good, some bad things about the department. Good things that would make this a career move. Bad things you couldn't live with. As far as I know, they don't live at the hangar when not flying. If they did, would you turn it down??? (thats for a previous poster...not you Six)

Almost every company in the Fortune 500 now posts all job openings on the company internet, or somewhere that they may be seen by the general public. Why? Because most company's have a bunch of lawyers that look at every possible way a company could become a target of litigation. If you post a job opening somewhere, then nobody can say that they didn't have an equal opportunity to apply.

Also, if a company does any business with the Federal Government, they are require by EEOC regulations to post all job openings for a certain period of time before they start interviewing.
