Last time I heard, starting pay was 52 - 55k and the schedule was pretty easy. You're home every night. No possibility of commuting.

Had the phone screen early June and the tech interview about 2 weeks ago. I suspect they'll be in touch with you soon about the next phase since they'll likely want to pool 5-6 guys together for in-person interview dates.

I wouldn't even mind not getting paid for the mil days taken.. just wouldn't want to seem like I'm abusing the system. An 8/6 schedule plus approx 4 mil days taken on the "off" days would be brutal. Any current Guard/Reserve flyers there care to touch on it?

Maybe someone on the inside has a hiring update?
Thx.

I had my phone interview on June 16th, and finally got an email saying I'm moving onto the tech phase July 3rd, and to expect someone to contact me in the next few weeks to schedule the tech phase. My buddy there says they are really swamped. I think adding another layer of interviews probably has something to do with.

Turnover (pilots) is extremely high at XOJET right now which is probably why they are swamped. They will get to you so don't worry. Just prep yourself for the tech part by reviewing Jepps and approaches at JAC, ASE, and EGE

I got away with FAA charts on my tech interview. I have access to Jepp as well, but my current employer only stocks FAA in the airplanes so I'm more current on those. Guy doing my tech interview didn't seem to be too concerned about it.
