It is so funny. Almost every person is actually putting in their posts why they did not get hired.
"I have XXXXX hours and XXX type ratings and XXX Turbine PIC and XXXX jet"
Who doesn't???????? The average newhire at NJ has a lot of experience but they did something either in the application stage or in the interview process that distinguished themselves from the rest.
So you ask a pilot to describe themselves and they immediately resort to hours, types, jet, and operating environment. This is a job where flying is 20 percent of the deal. We as pilots are an egotistical bunch. I remember in my NJ interview there were four guys who actually had the nerve to come in the room and say aloud to the other interviewees they "nailed" it and guess what? Not one of them is currently employed at NJ.
Ok now let the attacks begin.........
