to those getting hired at CHQ,

what are the chances of someone right at (or even slightly below) mins with no LOR getting an interview now?

wondering, thanks

Im thinking the 1st will be an easier travel day than the 31st. Everyone will be trying to travel to their party spots on the 31st and then too hung over to fly back on the 1st. Just a thought

Not a CHQ employee (internship doesn't start until May), but if you are travelling on American Connection, the 1st is pretty full to just about everywhere The 31st, on the other hand, doesn't seem too bad. The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th are pretty full too, depending on what city pairs you are travelling between.

Good luck if you do travel, and good luck in training; I have friends down in IAH now for systems training, and they might have started the sim.

<---- Had to sell Capitol One Bowl tickets cuz all the flights out of MCO are oversold ON EVERY AIRLINE the 2nd thru 5th

CHQ Internship

Boiler,

Have they hired any Interns that you know of?
Seems to be just guys with a lot of time.

I dont have alot of time and am going to the jan 2 class, however I hear that the interns have been in a pool forever regardless of experience.

As far as I know, all interns get in the pool(provided you are competent, don't piss anybody off, and do well in the interview) but if you don't have the total time they want, then you paddle for a while. What I don't know is if they are cutting interns any slack on minimum times. Haven't gotten that far in the game yet. I have been told by a CHQ pilot they offer slightly reduced mins to grads of Purdue and Comair Academy.

Being an intern is sure to help, but with as many 1500+hr pilots as there are out there these days, there isn't much incentive for hiring a 500hr guy. Who knows, in 2006 or 2007 things might be like the glory days of the late 90s, but maybe not. Just hafta wait my turn like everybody else...
