July Phone Interviews

[AirplanesSuck]

I dont think the amount of flight time once over the 2500 hour mins matters much, its clear they are looking for more than a pilot.....I should have worked at Chilis or Applebees .....my sim partner at my interview was a waiter in his first year at a regional...it was a plus in him getting hired.

I've been working at a private jet charter company for three years, doing essentially what they do. The phone interview went well (from my perspective), and I have their mins all met no problem. I had four internal letters of recommendation and two people walked in my app together in Columbus.

I was told by a couple people (who have nothing to do with hiring anymore) that I was "basically just what they were looking for." Now a 'no thank you.' Something has changed.

Good luck to all. It's PFM.

I really have to say wow! Who knows....maybe they are throwing apps up in the air and if they land face up they pick them? It really sounds like you would have been a perfect candidate to bring in to CMH.

That's what a lot of people inside told me at least. I wasn't being cocky... rather, I was very, very prepared for the phone interview and had planned on the same for the personal interview.

But like you said, just as several of my friends at NJ have said... who knows what they want?

Not a thing. Coming up on 8 weeks.

Nada, 4 and 1/2 weeks.

July 9th phone interview and still no word. I do know of someone who had their phone interview around 6/19 who received an invitation for the CMH interview around three weeks ago. His CMH interview was this past Tuesday & Wednesday.

A guy at my airline had the phone interview Tuesday and was told that he would hear something within five weeks; however, if he is selected for the CMH interview, it wouldn’t be until January. Other people have had their phone interviews rescheduled up to three times all the way back to October.

The word of the day is "patience".

Just had my phone interview within the past two weeks....I asked about timeline and she said 4-6 weeks. Everything was as previously posted. Very nice chit chat

Derinda

Is it true that Derinda McKinstry was let go at NetJets?

True! I was scheduled for my phone interview on August 20. Got an email on August 18/19 asking for a good date in October to reschedule it. Now it is on October 27. Unlike others, at least I am presently employed. Looks like more irons in the fire might be a good idea. Good luck to all.

Don't be fooled! My chit chat was awesome, yet they still sent me the "no thanks" email.

I hope you get it, but don't get too excited until 10 weeks after the in-person interview.

A friend of mine did his personal interview 10 weeks ago, and hasn't heard a thing. I don't know what they're doing over there, but I'd bet they're losing out on some good pilots.

8 weeks and waiting. Anybody hear anything yet?

My friend is at eleven weeks... he got a call from Netjets telling him they needed to finish some interviews in September, and that they'd let him know in early to mid October.

(That's after the personal interview.)

I hope you phone interviewees that haven't heard will get interviews set up soon!
