Regional Airlines hiring non citzen, green card holders?

[acaTerry]

Before the liberals chime in here....I can't but the poor non-American saga. I personally know someone who was a green card holder, hired at 700 hrs and was hired into the Avro. He was a hard worker, always doing something to better himself and he is a good stick, and that is what got him the job.
I can't wait until the checklists are written in spanish.

WTF are you talking about? Are you saying you think immigrants are hard-workers who deserve the right to apply to the same jobs as "natives?" What was the "Spanish" thing about? Do you think most legal immigrants speak Spanish?

last year most "legal" immigrants were from Europe according to the congressional accounting office.

No cover letter required and the cover letter I have was check by my unversity career centre. I am a E-RAU grad.

Out of curiosity, how did you get those 20hrs of 1900 and 5 hours of 757/767 time?

Sim time, there's your problem. ERAU alumni myself.

No matter what ERAU/Flight Safety tells you, sim time should be logged as such. It doesnt matter what Level or Reg they can quote. The airline apps are looking for actual flight time. PS do not put a 757/767 column on your resume when you have 5 hours in the sim.

Good luck, keep trying.

Can Americans work as pilots in your country?

Can Americans work as pilots in your country?

Sure they can. They just need to apply for a Visa, pay U$2,000 and wait for 3 years. After the Visa is finally accepted, then you apply for a permanent resident card, which will take you anywhere from 5 to 10 years and over U$10,000. In between you have to make sure you renew your visa once a year. Once that is all done, you will just need to put up with some arrogant native pilots thinking that they are better than you because they were born in a different area of the world.

My new hire class of nine had only four US citizens, the rest were imports.
