Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
Any reason why they wouldn't reply to someone with 4600+hrs 800+hrs multi turbine time with multi-crew and FMS experience? Application has been sitting for months. Done a few updates but nothing. I feel like I'm doing something horribly wrong but none of my friends can tell me what.
Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
The thing you did horribly wrong was applying to Jazz. You should be applying to AC. In this market, you are overqualified for a regional carrier.joenm wrote: ↑Wed Oct 23, 2019 10:05 pm Any reason why they wouldn't reply to someone with 4600+hrs 800+hrs multi turbine time with multi-crew and FMS experience?

Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
Heres a question. Ill be sitting with a brand new ATPL soon. Instructed all of it and have basically no multi time (25hrs). However I have lots of single IFR time. COVID 19 aside and when the world is normal again.... How likely is it to get in?

Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
Impossible. You need some sort of multi time or single turbine experience.
Since I’m flying the King Air, does that qualify me to fly the Queen of the skies?
Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
Won’t be hiring for a very long time so if you can get any experience somewhere else I would do it. I doubt there will be any Jazz hiring this year for sure and 2021 is doubtful.

Answer: nobody knows. Everything is speculation right now. Just never give up on your goals.

Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
I can sympathize with your current situation, you busted your a$$ getting your licenses and hours up and now you’re pumped to finally expand your career. The unfortunate thing is our industry has taken a kick to the nuts and your timing is awful.
Let me push your question back to you and hear what you have to say....
“How likely / long do you think it’ll be to get into a company like Jazz where they just laid off 675 pilots. Who all have first rights to return to work before the company even remotely considers looking to the streets, especially ones with limited time and experience like what you’ve outlined above?”
I don’t mean to be harsh, but we’re all getting smacked with a dose of reality here.
Stay healthy.

This is a career in aviation going forward.

Yah its pretty shitty currently however things eventually will change. People cant afford to self isolate for weeks on end. Better use my connections I currently still have.

Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
All depends whether you score enough diversity points with Jazz. I have 1900 hours with ATPL signed off, 900 multi turbine time. Got PFOd. Personally, I though it was the best interview experience that I've ever had, and they seemed to like every answer I gave them....faculties11 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 02, 2019 12:45 am As the title states I'm sitting at 1000+ hrs.

That’s pretty ignorant of you to assume and to comment that way.

Grow up. Theres plenty of rich white dudes running around jazz. With an attitude like that, it's no wonder you didnt get a call.L1900Edge wrote: ↑Sun Apr 05, 2020 12:58 pmAll depends whether you score enough diversity points with Jazz.

Then proceeds with that comment. At no point in this conversation was wealth or race mentioned until you assumed. Cmon man. Think before you hate.

Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
Laughable. I started through the process about three weeks before the music started, and was due to have my Sim eval tomorrow - and as a middle-aged, straight white male, I'm about as un-diverse as it gets..L1900Edge wrote: ↑Sun Apr 05, 2020 12:58 pmAll depends whether you score enough diversity points with Jazz.

Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
You probably have not noticed yet, but you may discover that the world of aviation in Canada is extremely competitive, and in fact, very very small. Things will come and bite you, and you will wonder how you never got a job flying that nifty, shiny C172. That advice is free, considering these times we live in at the moment.

Re: Wil Jazz hire with instructing time only?
Assuming that hiring will happen next year (based on the other topic on this forum), what chances does a Class 1 Flight instructor with 2000+ hrs Multi IFR rated and ATPL have in applying for Jazz then?
Should I apply for other regionals and build more multi two crew experience, or stick with instructing until they're well into hiring?
