Nestle

[Huggyu2]

Wow, Cosmo... you're a real charmer. I'm sure your attitude will get you far in life, not to mention this business.
Ever had a Nestle product you didn't like?: I guess that means that all Nestle employees should be hated.
Your comments are what I'd expect from someone who works for ________.
Have a nice day.

A tough place to crack, they have several people on the waiting list

I know my buddy is on the list once and IF they are looking to hire again, he is also several down the list.

I think the "waiting list" is a myth. Lots of people on this board say that inside contacts are important in corporate aviation, and I'm sure that's still true to a degree.... its always good to network with your peers.

However, the rules have changed over the years. It used to be that if you had a buddy in a flight dept, and you were recommended, you would have an interview with the CP and if he felt you would work out ok, you were in.

Its not like that anymore. I believe that HR plays a far larger role now, and I suspect that company lawyers have input, especially in regards to discrimination issues, having a politically correct ethnicity and gender balance, etc.

The element of timing has also changed in the hiring process. It used to be that hiring decisions were made within a few days of an interview. Not so anymore. Weeks or even months often go by before a candidate is given an offer or rejected.

Ok, at least cosmo hates AA for the same reason a lot of people do.

Flythis--I had an FO who used to work for TransStates and Central Air Freight who had a million "hershey" stories. Laughed my a$$ off. But he wasn't very smart. He left TWA in 2000 to work for SWA because he lived in AUS. Moron missed out on that lucrative AA seniority number... TC

Cosmotheassman only want serious replies....

That's all the guy was asking about fractional pay.

I guess that doggie door only opens one way!

So, did you get that dream job flying for Nestle or are you still eating Hershey bars?

Where is Nestle based and what are they flying?

NEstle is based out of Glendale Ca. THey are about 2 blocks from my place here, since you asked. Not sure what they fly, but it's prob based out of VNY or BUR. I'll walk down there and schmooz with the nerds drinking a $4 starbucks that I can't afford on my CFI paycheck and see what I can find out for ya.
