There were a couple TSA guys that were interviewed at RAH not very long ago. The chief pilot for CHQ came down on them pretty hard about abandoning their company. Said it showed something about their character and made them a higher liability to hire. I took a few new hires I saw at the hotel for XJT to lunch since I had a vehicle two days ago. He was one of them and was a nice and intelligent guy. They simply didn't like the fact that he hadn't shown loyalty.
Depending on how the person hiring you feels it could hurt.
So they won't hire current 121 pilots with CRJ or ERJ time but they’re offering a $2500 bonus to those with time in type? TD? Does this mean RAH has hiring CA's that are break company policy? Not really a good example to set?
I had a friend recently leave ASA for RAH; his interview was about 20 minutes long and was immediately placed in the next class. Shame on him; now he lives in domicile, sees his family more often and will upgrade in the same amount of time with an operator that has a more stable future full of growth.
TD, there are too many hypocrites in aviation, don't be one of them.
