Yeah i went to the roadshow and was told that my time on the Q400 didn't count and that it had to be jet time. Was also told that they really wanted to interview me but that they couldn't bypass the jet requirement. There were more words that Damnit that I wish that I knew in Arabic.
Don't give up; supply and demand, you know?
I once tried the 'persistence works' approach, but got the old IBM response in return.
If you have a pprune account, the interview is discussed ad nauseum... it's a multi day process consisting of a technical exam, english proficiency test, psychometric evaluation, group exercise, personal interview, etc. The sim is conducted in a 330, with a engine failure on departure leading to a no-automation, purely raw data single engine ILS to minimums.
Thank you for the quick response. Not sure what a pprune account is? Could you go into some detail as to the technical questions, questions asked in the personal interview, and group exercise? Thank you again I appreciate it.
By the way, are you working there now?

Funny. They told me the something similar about my ERJ time, except it sounded a little more like this, "Oh, I'm sorry, we are only looking for typed pilots right now. Better luck next time." Wish they had said that before I wasted a day going to their roadshow.

I wish you all the luck in getting on with Etihad, especially since you are slaving way for old Hulas at GoJet.
Thanks for the luck Carl I appreciate it, but I'm furloughed ATA Airlines with 10 years of L-1011, B-757, B-737 time, not to mention tons of extended over water, and international experience.

I believe it. Don't worry, I am genuinely hoping you can break away from Hulas ASAP.
