Quote: Actually, no. We are all interviewing for a Captain position which requires us to spend some time in the right seat first. If you go to an interview with a Major with the mindset that you are interviewing for a FO position, you won't be hired.
Technically you are interviewing to be a First Officer, just as you did several years ago at ASA. Your role at another carrier will be that of a First Officer. You are right though, the spirit of the job requires one to have the mindset of a future Captain while serving as an FO. The point I am trying to make is that an experienced FO such as the several hundred we have here at XJT is just as capable of fulfilling the role as a FO at a mainline carrier as a RJ Captain is, especially CAs that were fortunate to upgrade within 18-24 months at the PSAs and Compass's of the world with less than 3000 TT.
