Does choosing to work at Spirit count as a failure? Asking for a friend...

Actually I've heard from several different people that having Spirit on your resume is actually not looked highly upon.

Are these "several different people" on the hiring teams of airlines? My guess is no, based on the ever-increasing number of Spirit pilots being hired at reputable airlines.

Not for SWA, we've got guys interviewing and leaving for there every month! Delta, too. Not sure the opinions of other Higher Tier carriers about having Spirit on your resume.

Let me rephrase. Having spirit on your resume doesn't make you look better than the rj job you just left. I.e getting a job at Spirit is not going to open the legacy door any wider then it was when you left your current job. JetBlue looks good on a resume. Not spirit.

I bet knowing the difference between THAN & THEN will help though when it comes to getting hired at a real airline, lol.

"jetblue looks better than Spirit", lol Are you kidding me, lol


btw, I heard Jyri was in GS telling guys how tough times are ahead for us, lol.

Because people are leaving (or at least trying to) and we'll have to lower out standards even more to fill classes?
