You work a very long time to amass the qualifications required to BE COMPETITIVE with anyone to be considered.

But, to meet/exceed their qualifications, PASS THEIR ASSESSMENT EXAM, already have WIDE BODY PIC Type Ratings on aircraft that THEY CURRENTLY FLY, and have flown with 3 people, one of which is a SENIOR CAPTAIN WITH ATLAS, it's makes you wonder " WHAT IS IT THAT I DON'T HAVE that causes HR/PILOT RECRUITING to keep
Me Out?"

It makes you ask if it REALLY HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH:

1- My Age
2- My Race/Ethnicity

If I have exceeded all the qualifications then the ONLY OTHER THING on the App that will cause them to Discriminate AGAINST YOU
is the EEOC INFORMATION That You Are REQUIRED TO PROVIDE
Prior to the App being submitted.

They can say that "We in HR/PILOT RECRUITMENT Don't get
That information.....and we DON'T KNOW what your ETHNICITY
IS When we Select an Applicant."

And to that, in 2016, I have to call BULL****!

I have just one question.......Why is it that the MAJORITY
of Pilots, WITH ATLAS, are CAUCASIANS?

Including CAUCASIANS that have NOTHING MORE than
REGIONAL AIRLINE......And NO WIDE BODY TYPE RATINGS
OR INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE, or, MILITARY HEAVY/ FIGHTER JET
Types?

If it's not meant to be for me......That's okay because you're
Not meant to be a part of EVERY AIRLINES CORPORATE CULTURE,
But, you would, at least, be ABSOLUTELY FAIR
In the selection process.

I don't mind FAIR COMPETITION......That's what this country/society
is about......but, don't make me FEEL like you are OVERLOOKING ME
because of my AGE OR RACE/ETHNICITY.

I don't want to believe that, but, the thought keeps coming up..
especially when I talk to others about the situation, including my
Caucasian Friends.

I don't dislike Atlas Air, I would just like to UNDERSTAND their
Methods of Flight Crew Selection Procedures....Because,
it doesn't seem FAIR OR OBJECTIVE.
