I haven’t interviewed yet with Skywest, hell, maybe they wouldn’t even hire me with knowing the fact that I left in the first week at Compass. I have nothing but good things to say about Compass......in the end it came down to commuting vs not commuting. We were fairly certain that we were moving to Phx, then that got squashed. Living in Sac I could drive to work and with a possible relocate in a year to Boise it just made sense. Perhaps I will be kicking myself soon.....who knows
That’s sucks. I hope it works out for you.
I’m on the 175 based on left coast and have enjoyed my time at OO.
To answer your previous questions. You’ll be paired with a captain unless there are more new hires then captain then 2 new hires get paired together.
Most in my class got a 2 bedroom/bathroom suite but there was a couple guys that shared a 2 bed 1 bath room. They did seem to pair up people with similar ages.
No accurate way to answer your reserve question. It was 6 months for me and I got hired late last year.
Good luck!
