And 500 hours of volunteer work at a soup kitchen.

Expect at OBAP? Do we get a chance to speak to an Alaska air recruiter? Is it a meet n greet? Is it an interview?

3200TT
2500 a320 (foreign air carrier experience)
A320 type
No degree

Thanks in advance!

I was told similar to what others here were told at the NW Aviation conference last month - 4500TT and +1000 TPIC are competitive. Hiring events are definitely tracked though. I’ve also heard that when you go to events that are Alaska only, such as the NW Conference or Oshkosh, it’s valued even more. So go meet them and network when you can, while you continue to build more experience. It will only help. Unfortunately, no one knows where or when they’re going to show up next.

From the recruiting page this morning,

"Last November, we were excited to receive so many applications from pilots who want to fly for us at Alaska Airlines. As a result of those applications, we were able to successfully fill our classes through the first half of this year. If you applied last November and haven’t heard back from us, we hope to bring you good news later this year when we begin interviews again. Thank you for your patience and continued interest in Alaska Airlines."

People with 1000+ tpic are over qualified for this place.

Alaska offers:
A crap contract
Little attrition
No scope
No growth
Horrible mgmt/labor relationship
A historically weak pilot group
No direction
No brand identity,
We are posting a loss(the only legacy to do so)

And southwest hasn’t even started flying to Hawaii yet. Then we’re really screwed!

But...we have a fresh west coast vibe according to our dictators
