Been talking to lots of NetJets guys on the road the last couple of weeks who say that the company is hurting for pilots pretty badly right now. Multiple guys have said to submit a resume even though I don't meet the stated TT mins. They've all said with my ATP and previous 135 experience it shouldn't matter...
Any opinions from y'all on the veracity of that?

There is no shortage of applications yet. The shortage is pilots on property and sim slots. We're only having small classes (5-6 pilots) right now due to sim availability. Everyone knows the shortage of quality applicants is coming. NJAs 2500 hr requirement is an insurance and owner contract stipulation, so no room to budge. My close friend got hired at 2504 hrs in 2005. NJA was hiring 300-400 per year back then.

That's what I figured. Appreciate it! I'll be waiting a bit longer to apply then. At that point I'll have over 1000 hours of 135 experience and hopefully have a good chance at it.

Does NetJets provide all pilots with their own Ipad or do they stay in the aircraft?
Also, does NJ provide each pilot with their own cellphone? If so do most guys just use that as their personal cell or do they take two phones with them on tour?
Thanks.
