Interview with Skybus

[PlaneJohn]

Anyone have an interview with Skybus? If so what was it like?

 

[Mickey]

Don't trust them. They have interviewed people for captain positions and then told them they were hired. Later these new hires were told that they were being offered first officer positions instead.
Nice friendly people otherwise.

What was the structure of the interview and what kind of questions did they ask?

 

[Jack Mehoff]

I heard the structure is: on your knees, bring some chap stick and smile like a donught. Anyone that goes there to fly an airbus for $65K a year is a Tool

 

[mylicon]

it's now 30 000 for an f/o, 65 000 was the good ole days,

 

[Beetle007]

actually 130+ K a year for an A320 FO was the good old days.

 

[mylicon]

you are right, i was attempting to be sarcastic. they aren't hiring captains anymore. only 30000 a year f/o's. good times.

They should paint the LifeTime Channel logo on the side of the planes so everyone knows that no one with any nutz is fly'n the plane.

The interview takes place at a Goodwill store.

Yeah, that was a pretty good one!

Don't laugh much on this sight, but that one did it.

J.M., that should be considered for best comment of the year.

Yeah maybe "Curves" could sponsor the next Skybus Bird......keep the butterfly, it fits just fine with that "we have a location in every strip mall" theme.

Give him a break...if you look at his previous posts on here you'll see that he's got more than 2,000 hours and has been trying to get on with SWA and Net Jets:

Quick question for the Southwest pilots. I am interested in pursuing a career with SWA. I have just under 5000TT with almost 1350 PIC Turbine/checkairman on BE1900D. What are the chances of getting hired with this flight time and considering I have no jet time, does this limit my opportunity. The only thing I do have in my favor is that I dedicated over 15 years to the hospitality profession. I appreciate any information from current Southwest Pilots.

Have you seen most pilots they don't get sarcasm
