I guess that referral program isn't working like they hoped. Can't understand why someone wouldn't come here to work for servitude wages and consistently be at work far more than 14 hours a day

Maybe the HR department is banking on the allure of working in the airline industry, that was a dream job for many young women at one time. Among other things they see it as a way to travel, plus find romance, meet possible mates, that's always in the back of a woman's mind.

People will sometimes subject themselves to crazy conditions following their dream. My cousin is a retired pilot from Continental, he had big dreams and a love of flying when he started his career, now bitter about what they did to his retirement and nothing good to say about Mr Lorenzo.

Can anyone tell me how good QOL is for Bus crews in IWA if you live in base? Also I see that they are holding on-site interviews at Aerocrew, is that a legit full interfview or the standard meet and greet to get an interview? Thanks for sharing

Hopefully they'll tell 'em about the prospective relocation of the base to BUR.

Looks real close on a map.

It isn't.

Allegedly, it's the best place to be. Show up to work, jet's broken, MD80 flies the trip, you get pay protected and go home...

We're desperate for pilots...I'm sure there is the possibility for a job offer right off the bat.

Sadly I do not have any turbine PIC, so I hope the company is not currently putting hefty amount of emphasis on that checkmark.
I just got a phone interview invite. 2500TT. But I do have 1000TPIC.
