United Junior Crew Bases

[Cardenal]

Hi, my friend is applying to United and was wondering where the Junior crew bases are. Or alternatively, what Airlines should she apply to in order to be able to be based or be able to commute to the New York, New Jersey area? If anyone can help, thank you!

How about Conitnental. Huge base in Newark.

Sorry, should have mentioned this before, she already interviewed @ Continental, unfortunately at the tail end of one of their hiring sprees, so she will have to wait at least a year to reapply. Meantime, she needs a job and will relocate if she has to.

Word is from a couple UAL f/a's i asked when I tried for this back in May, the junior base is BOS, but when I asked someone at the prescreen interview they were hiring for BOS, NYC, IAD, ORD, DEN, and LAX. If she really wants SEA don't count on it from what I heard its super senior all the ladies that were around when UAL created F/A's are based there. Like most airlines however, you don't get to pick your base, and you probably can transfer after a couple of months or so. The interview process for them is rather different compared to CALs, she'll get brought to CHI for a prescreen interview done with a hiring agency in downtown (real nice people, the building is a bitch to find however), if they have an interest, the deal is they write you back in 2-3 wks (never got this far) then you're interviewed by United personnel at their inflight training center in Elk Grove,
and if they think she's the woman for the job, they'll notify her when that 7 wk F/A training class starts.

Wish your friend the best of luck

But if she really wants to stay around in NYC, look at XJet, i'm pretty sure EWR is super junior
