Renkery Aviation

I think it's Gunthy-Renker at UDD.

Sure does sound like them, I'll look into this, sounds like they're either being purposely coy or its a fake add.

UDD in the summer would suck.

 

[English]

Suck is a relative term.

Probably Fake!

It's probably a fake, if you replaced "Renky Aviation" with Guthy-Renker you would have an identical add that Guthy-Renker placed back in 2002!

I haven't been able to confirm this yet but it looks pretty slimy.

 

[English]

I thought about that, but I've been known to place ads like this that were legitimate. Sometimes I've needed to find pilots but I didn't want to put the company name out there because I didn't want a barrage of phone calls. I've resorted to making up company names to prevent that from happening.

 

[English]

OR

Maybe the aviation department is now a separate LLC from the parent company, and had to change their name. "Renkery" is a good combination of Gunthy and Renker, still recognizable yet different.





Did I win a prize?

Its Fake

Sorry guys, but it's confirmed it's a fake add. There's only 1 direct marketing company that a) can afford a 2000 and an XL and b) actually operates both. That company did not place an add under its name or a pseudo name, and it certainly wouldn't place that add on skyjobs.net.

Looks like skyjobs.net went into some old NBAA listings, changed the names involved and placed fake adds.

Could someone explain to me the reason for someone putting a fake add on a website? Are they trying to get your personal info or something?

 

[Capt1124]

The fake ad is put up to make it look like the pay site has something to offer and you should pay them to see their job listings. It's the same reason they take job ads from free sites or the NBAA or whatever and put them up. That's merely sleazy, but this is actual fraud.

This ad actually appeared on aviationcareer.com, but skyjobs.net might be a front for them, sicne every third ad they run is from that board.

They are all slimeballs

I still see an ad that I placed 4 years ago make the rounds now and then. Remember, these clowns are in the business of selling subscriptions

NOT getting you hired.

The more ads they have, whether BS or not, the more likely you will pay them to see them.

I have only heard of a couple of people getting hired through ads on these type of sites.
