How far do recommendations go? I have 3 friends at Spirit and desperately want to get on there. I'm born and raised S FL and have watched Spirit grow since I've started this career and really like what they have going. I'm planning on going to the next job fair to hopefully get an interview. I'm just shy of the 4,000 min but have a very diverse background (mostly because of furloughs). 5 jet types, currently at my 3rd 121.

Guess you've been luckier than most. Cause that's what it is in this industry luck. One day you're making money, the next the company says nope it's all over. All I can do is adapt, change, and not let my anger of those situations get the best of me. Although all those places provided me with a whole lot of experience lol.
I was posting mostly tongue in cheek. I have been way luckier than most, even when enduring a 6 yr furlough, and I like your attitude as you seem to always be looking to advance your career. I feel less sympathy for those that just sit on their duff and complain that things didn't go as they initially planned. Soon you'll be in tall cotton but keep you horizon open and apply to all you'd be WILLING to work for and go with your best option. |

Don't be afraid to name drop at the fair. Be cool about it, but they like to know you know what life is like there based on actual reports. Also, don't be shy. Introduce yourself to Spirit people whenever you can. Again, be cool about it. But if the VP of flight ops is sitting in the lobby at 8 AM with a yellow shirt on not talking to anybody then he is waiting for applicants to make the first move. Go ahead and introduce yourself. They are there to hire you, give them every opportunity to get to know you. The 7 hrs and 55 minutes that you are waiting to talk to a recruiter can be more valuable time than the 5 minutes you actually get with a recruiter. Good luck, I've enjoyed the process so far.
Awesome advice guys!! Sounds like a lot of good people there to have fun with/work. |

They are in a full throttle hiring boom! I know the class on the 7th has new hire instructors in there so they can keep the flow of hires coming.
