Net Jets Application

[Razorback Flyer]

Hey everyone,
Had a question about the netjets app that maybe some current folks could help answer.

It says to apply send completed app, cover letter, and resume in. The app is a PDF file, but it says you can send it in via email. Do most folks type it out and scan it in to send via email. Don't currently have an typewriter, so I'd have to procure one. Does anyone know if there's a way to do it on a computer, rather than typing it?

Thanks in advance

You can go to Adobe.com and buy a "write" version of their software. I have no clue what the cost is. That way you can just fill in the boxes in the .pdf file an send it back.

Another option is to go and find a typewriter, type it out, scan it, email it, or snail mail it.

Or you can do the least popular option with the interviewers and hand write it. TRUST me. You are not doing yourself any favors by doing this.

If you can open it in word, or in photoshop or something you can also insert text boxes where you need the text to be.

Hand wrote mine as well - was just very meticulous in my penmanship, almost to the point of being painful. Start March 17th. In retrospect it would probably have been easier to find the typewriter at the local library rather than write it out.

A few weeks ago I tried this... (hint. hint).

Now I will try this... (HINT. HINT.)


206amphib, tankerswede, really, I'm glad you got hired. Here's the deal. Just because your handwriting is legible to you, that don't mean it is to me. If an interviewer can not read you application, you are hurting your chances.

NetJets is a SERVICE company that happens to fly people around. Don't you see how you are providing yourself and the interview team a SERVICE by typing it out?

NetJets is the hottest gig in the Fractional industry. If you REALLY want to get on with us you are only HELPING yourself by getting it typed.

But what do I know...:erm:

Well, what do I know, but I am joining both of em in the 17th class and I hand wrote mine as well. Of course, I am an adult and know how to take my time and write neatly.

Point taken. I only stated what I did, not what I'd recommend. If I had to do it over again I would take the time to type it. As I prepared for the interview it became difficult to tell the true discriminators from the "Should I wear a tie tack? Should it be a miniature airplane? What if it's a type NJA doesn't operate?" sort of minutia. There is a difference between attention to detail and stuff that just doesn't matter.

Hindsight has been insightful. I was the last one in my class to get called and the whole time I was playing the nightmare scenarios in my head. Had I gotten the letter instead of a phone call I certainly would have wondered if the outcome could have been different due to something like that.

If you have the means to do so, I'd say take Fischman's advice and eliminate one more variable from the equation.

I bow in the awesomeness of your excellence, and I offer congratulations on being able to accomplish what few have been able to do so recently.

My advice stands, and I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE anyone who is interested in coming to NetJets to heed it.
