Question- I have a buddy whom is applying on the 135/121 link and hasnt heard anything in months. Are yall getting calls now after a week with it? Just wondering if he should reapply.
 
Thanks coolyokeluke, I'll be looking forward to it.

Superpilot92: If your buddy was in my position here's what I'd do..

First of all I applied last year in dec and didn't get the interview, low times they said was to blame.

After working for 7 months at another regional they tell me I'm about to be out on my A$$. I went to access my old application with XJT but the system had changed and i couldn't log in with my current PW.

Long story short I called some techie to help me set my account back up so I could access it again and applied under both the external pilot and current 121 ( As i have not yet been furloughed ).

After 2 weeks and 2 of my co-workers got the call I started to sweat. Called up the corporate # and asked to leave a msg with a pilot recruiter. Got a phone call later that afternoon from the same recruiter saying she got my message and was able to access my account ( after some glitches ) and offered the interview.

So if your buddy is in the same position have him try to contact a recruiter, they didn't seem in the least upset that I called. That's about all the advice I've got for ya.
 
Appreciate it, i think this is his 3 time to apply. He is very competitive for the the position he is flying Gulfstreams for a international charter company. I cant think of what else he may need to do. I have tried just about everything i can do to help him out so i guess he just needs to call or hang in there. Good luck with the interview. Its a great company to work at.
 
Some people actually like to be home and not do on demand charter. Plus he would be probably be based at home. Not that its any of your business of course. XJET is a great company and your ignorance and continued blasting of the company obviously shows you have some hard feelings.

QOL is very important to most people maybe not to you but even if you have to sit reserve for a while in the time to come we have really good work rules for reserves. I actually enjoyed being on reserve because i am from Houston so it worked out great.

So if you wish to continue to bash XJET because you got turned down then by all means go ahead but dont pretend you know what its like to work for this company. By the way you never did muster up the courage to admit where you work so go ahead give it a shot tell us so we can be jealous.

don't meet the mins, never applied, probably will once I meet the reqs

have enough contacts at just about every regional out there to know better
 
i am not trying to give you to hard of a time but in todays industry you dont get to choose what company to work for you pretty much apply everywhere and give it your best. Just try not to be so ignorant. the industry sucks period so dont pretend that you know whats going on because none of us do. todays right decision is tomorrows wrong. once you get in you will see. good luck with the instructing i know how you feel i was there a year ago.

Ha! 3 Cups!

I hear he has chilled out. No more walking through the airport in rank file.

I sent in my stuff in Sept. and just got a call Friday. Of course, I'm not looking anymore.

what's he want with xjet if he's flying G-streams international?

and don't tell me monthly bids

Its funny how everyone thinks that every job flying Gulfstreams means 20 days off a month and a six figure salary. Charter sucks....I don't care what you're flying.
