Is NetJets Still Hiring?

[reepicheep]

Been waiting over 6 months for an interview, no internal rec. and now starting to believe it might be a necessity to get an interview at netJets and pretty near everywhere ellse for that matter. Things have turned in a hurry.

 

[DAS at 10/250]

I was hired in January with no internal rec. It is possible.

 

[F/O]

It would be nice if they could put up a proper "fill in the blanks" PDF application up on the website and a way to submit resume and cover letter electronically. The way they do it now is quite "1990s." It would help folks be nice and neat with the data entry and, considering the number of applicants, I think it would help the recruiters out as well by reducing the amount of paper.

Serious Question:

If the '05 contract was better than the POS, and better than the previous, doesn't that mean the quality of people hired before '05 was less than those after?

Get off your horse, Jerk.

Not to mention who's more dedicated to the cause.

That's what I'm talkin' bout.

But that's just how I Roll. imp:

how does it reduce the paper? Its still the same forms whether or not you typed it electronicly, typewriter, or just old fashioned pen to paper it. Even if they recieved it all by email, they probably then have to print it out and stick it in your file.

They have 2 interview groups this week that a friend got to choose from. One started yesterday and one today. Still hiring, just being very choosy on who they interview, but I don't really get how they choose since many with good LORs have waited many months. I wrote 2 LORs about 2 months ago and both just got the interview offers in the last week. Why some others have to wait longer and some have to wait shorter I do not know. The only thing I do know is that a LOR will get you the interview faster than someone without one.

I'd be applying to XO Jet and Citation Shares.

I have had 4 buddies of mine go to XO because they simply didn't hear from NJA in a timely way. Fine, it just proves we are behind the power curve and its going to cost us in quality F/O's.

2005 to 2007 did enough damage, people hired with a domicile choice in mind....now this!!!!!

NJA simply doesn't have its sh!t together regarding interviews and as a result we are losing some of the "cream of the crop"

If you have time to spare....NJA.....

If you need to meet the mortgage....screw NJA, go somewhere else.

lol....so it's NJ's fault you didn't get a call.....with that attitude im glad your going to work at XO then.....

I could be wrong but I believe he does work for NetJets.

It's not that they don't have it together - Derinda does a great job at what she does. It is just that the powers that be, have pushed expansion beyond what the market will bear - training, aircraft purchases, etc.

Anyone else wonder what is driving this expansion all of a sudden? With fuel costs rising and everyone else downsizing, what does Mr. Buffett know what everyone else seems not to know. Maybe him being a Democrat helps his insight a bit . . .

All of the sudden? Where have you been?

 

[Schrode]

Come on Dad. It is much different than two years ago (aka, "all of a sudden"). Where have YOU been? In the last year we hired 500 pilots, started a 200 million dollar expansion project, placed orders for 200 new aircraft - all while the ENTIRE aviation industry is crying UNCLE over fuel prices, salaries and inernal problems. (and we made record profits by the way)

I just think Uncle Warren has something up his sleve - that's all. Nothing magical, I just think the economy is going to get a whole lot better a whole lot sooner than most people think. Call me an optimst.

I've been here the whole time by the way.

You would not be wrong.

He is a captain at NetJets, getting close to ten years, if I remember.

And, a hell of a great guy to boot. A better friend would be hard to find.

Thanks Hung......to clear the record.... Its been 9yrs. Man!!! Time flies (no pun intended).

Wait until you here the full story.

Sufice to say, I have never and I will never allow anything less then a 100% total excellence. Some people I have flown with don't seem to agree with this philosophy.......

Its almost as if NJA should be thanking them for coming to work here.

Sux to be them when I'm in the left seat, which is always.

Its all about the owners..... Plain and simple.

 

[lookin4better]

DO , sounds like some boys with entitlement issues ( the ones that think NJ should thank them ) .

I would place a bet a lot of those 'types' come from the regionals and are ME ME ME!! ;-)

I like your attitude!

 

[CA1900]

Sufice to say, I have never and I will never allow anything less then a 100% total excellence.

I can vouch for that.

Oh, and to repay my karmic burden, I did four Jepp updates in LUK before heading to the hotel last week. I thought of you.
