NetJets Hiring

[learflyer]

What is your autopilot like? Holy crap! Am I supposed to know the runway stripe thingy? I need to hit the books. That one guy knew what kind of yaw dampener he had? Holy schmear.

From Everything Explained:

Here's how I calculate VDP... if you see the runway, drive the plane over to it, and land! Works every time for most pilots.

Hey!!!!!! That's MY technique!

 

[gunfyter]

What? No VNAV?

October 12, 2006 Date interview was submitted: October 21, 2006 Were you hired as a result of this interview? yes Total flight time: 2700 PIC flight time: 1500 PIC TURBINE flight time: 0 Instrument flight time: 260 Total multi engine flight time: 1300




woohoo...theres hope!

Well if they are only hiring less than half the interviewees that's good news for all of us hired after the contract was signed. Its a good indication that they aren't getting enough quality folks willing to shlep their butts to the measley five domiciles they are offering. At the rate they are growing that is a huge incentive for them to open up HBA to all. I'm sure there are a heck of a lot of great pilots who'd like to come over but aren't willing to move or commute.

Because its their big bargaining chip for the next contract it would have to get really bad before they give it up, but here's hoping.

I got my application in and 15 days later got an email telling me the application was accepted. The next day I had an email inviting me for an interview in mid January for a class date of either Feb or Mar.

 

[Birddog]

Wow, I rec'd the application accepted email at the beginning of Nov and haven't heard anything since. How much time should you let elapse before following up?

Maui either has the secret code that lets him skip everyone in the pile ahead of him, or he's actually Mauifullofullof$h!t.

A lot of it depends on your domicile request(s), and how backed up the application stack is. They don't interview you until they need to fill a slot at that domicile, unlike the airlines. I waited from February to September for PBI, to give you an idea of how long it can take.

 

[Birddog]

I chose CMH for my first choice, TEB for my second.

 

[JTrain]

Could you put multiple base requests on the application?

I'd be open to everywhere except LAX - could this speed things up?

[CFIIer]

how quick would a person get an interview if he requested LAX?

 

[CAP E TON]

After I sent in my resume I had the app in my hand a week later

 

[CFIIer]

LAX is one of the more junior bases, isn't it?

 

[Archie Bunker]

LAX is one of the more junior bases, isn't it?

There's really no such thing as a "junior base" at NJA. It is the most undesirable domicile because of the cost of living. If you put LAX as your choice of domicile on your application, you'd probably get a response pretty quick.

For what it's worth, I sent in my app mid-September, got the "application accepted" email mid-October and haven't heard anything yet as far as an interview. I ranked my domiciles DAL-LAX-PBI-CMH-TEB, but mentioned that I would accept any of them. Has anyone else gotten the interview email lately? If so, when did you put in your application?

One more quick question: Do they interview just about everyone who meets the mins or do they pick and choose those with the highest time? I am low on total time, but the time that I have is decent quality. (2750TT, 2400 multi-turbine, 1100 turbine PIC, current regional turboprop captain). I was just wondering how competitive I might be.

If you got the application I would say that you are going to get an interview. Things slow down over the holidays so hang in there. I would bet that January will see things pick up again. There was a big sic open bid that came out today. A sic is most likely not going to move to another sic posistion. Look at it as a picture of things to come. Best of luck.

What do you mean? Slots only open up do to upgrades?? What aircraft is likely the most hired into early next year??

 

[Willy21]

Upon your date of hire you incur a two year equipment lock on your initial aircraft. This equipment lock restricts a First Officer from being awarded a First Officer posistion in another aircraft, unless you bid and can hold a BBJ or Falcon 2000EZ First Officer or a Captian posistion in any aircraft type. Every pilot that has been hired in the last two years will not be awarded any of these posistions. They can only move to a new domicile.

The sic bid that came out yesterday had a mix of, Hawker 400, Ultra, Encore, Hawker 800XP and XPC, Citation X and G-200. CMH, DAL, PBI and LAX were the domiciles that I remember. If there is some info above that is not correct please correct me. Best of Luck.
