Who is still waiting for NJA?

How does the domicile system work?

How does the domicile system work?

You're hired into one of the 5 current domiciles -- which one you're assigned is part of your job offer, so you'll know when you accept or decline it. Bases are CMH, PBI, LAX, DAL, and TEB. When you start a work week, you'll know by 6pm the night before what time you'll need to report to your base, and what you're doing. Report as directed. That's it.

Even as a "reserve" pilot, you'll still know if/when you're working the next day by 6pm, so you can plan accordingly. You can live anywhere you want, and it's up to you to get to the domicile. (Some guys who are on the 7-on/7-off schedule will buy a discount airline ticket well ahead of time to arrive the night before, since they know what days they're working. I'm about a 2.5 hour drive away from my base, so I just do that.)

I recently applied to netjets about two weeks ago. I sent my resume in with a cover letter. Currently hold just under 5000 TT with 1100 PIC turbine/check airman. Two questions??? Is this competitive and 2??? How long does it take to receive an application. I understand not everyone gets an application form. Do they base their decisions on flight time. I currently fly a BE1900D.

A 1900D is not a bad thing at all. I know of a lot of NJA pilots who came from the 1900D, including myself. So don't feel that your background in the mighty Beech is a detriment. In fact, Derinda came to NJA from a regional that operated 1900's, so she well understands where you are coming from.

As for your specific questions, your flight time is competitive and being a check airman should be a plus and give you something else to talk about during the interview. As for getting an app, keep submitting updates online if you don't receive an app fairly quickly. Also, internal recommendations are a plus.

Good luck to you.

I submitted an resume 8 days later had application sent it back 7 days later email accepting it next day interview date and I interviewed yesterday. Derinda said competitive times are meeting minimums. I have 3200 TT and it was a great experience. LAX first choice for me. 2nd was CMH. Still waiting to hear. THey said they are hiring for all domiciles between now and April. There will be three classes. Also pretty much every airplane except BBJ, & Falcon.

I can't believe with 5000TT and 1100 PIC Turbine you ask if you are competitive at NJ??? Go to Fedex or swa man.

What domicile or domiciles did you say you were willing to accept?

What domicile or domiciles did you say you were willing to accept?

I live in the DFW area so I put DAL. But I did choose the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th choice selection. I figured that if I only checked 1st choice I would not be following directions b/c it said to check your 1st-5th choice. When I interview some day hopefully soon, I will only take DAL as my base.

I recieved an interview invite last week, replied diretly to the email about which dates I could accept, and have yet to hear anything back. Anybody remember how long it took? The email said as quickly as possible.
Thanks

I waited 7 months before the interview e-mail came. Hope it won't be that long for you, but it's worth the wait!

Applied late Sept. Received app accepted mid Oct. PBI first choice and haven't heard anything.

How does the domicile system work?

Poorly.

 

[Cargoav8or]

Haven't researched it yet, but what is the written test about? Is it just standard atp crap?

App accepted 10/17, still no interview date. My #1 choice is DAL. I have a couple other interviews set up, so I hope they call soon...NetJets is my number one choice, but I wouldn't want to defer a class date somewhere else just to wait and see if NetJets wants me. I have emailed Derinda and Pilot Recruitment once with a flight time update and saying that I could accept any domicile (hoping to speed the process), but no reply.

Has anyone whose app was accepted on or after 10/17 with DAL as #1 choice received an interview?? Just curious...

 

[Sir Innocenti]

I was just curious to see how many pilots on this board are still waiting for an interview with Netjets along with domicile choice and when their application was accepted.

I'll start! My application was accepted in late June and PBI was my choice.

Im waiting 'til 2010 when they start doing the gateway domicile.....Im not commuting to LAX.......

 

[crjaviator]

Resume sent beginning of January.
Application received 1/19.
Application returned 1/22.
Application accepted 2/8.
Applied for PBI as 1st choice.

Time will tell.

App accepted 11/27 with DAL as only choice, talked with an FO from NetJets who is trying to get his buddy on there. He talked with someone in HR and was told that DAL is an 18 months wait. I don't know if that is from when you apply or when your app is accepted. I hope that rumor is not true, but it is what I was told.

Hi!

I've heard the wait varies depending on your basing choices, with CMH being the shortest wait. I think the quickest wait is about 6 mos. from receiving the application, if u send it in right away.

I just read in one of the professional publications that NetJets hiring in 2006 was down in comparison to 2005 and not expected to improve in 2007.

 

[jtf]

I've heard 350 for 2007, not sure about 2008. Probably hiring less this year due to the cancelled G-150 order, Hawker 4000 continued delays, I believe no more Hawker 400s coming in, and less retirements so far than expected. Once the Hawker 900s and 4000s start coming in there will probably be a bit of a hiring bump and if the older guys start retiring at a faster pace that will be another bump. Good luck to all who wish to come on.
