About the process
First of all thanks for your attention. I want to know if someone can help me with information about the process of been hired. Sim, test, med exams etc. Also I’ve been living abroad working and studying for a while , i have a 4 and a half years degree on international affairs (of course from a foreign university), should this be a problem on their preferences? Do i have a good chance to get hired? Many thanks .

I don’t think you’re competitive. Your total time is low, but more importantly, you have zero Turbine PIC. Do you even have any PIC let alone TPIC? Or did you do some kind of multi crew liscense and then straight to the Airbus?

It’s not hate. He asked what his odds were.
He’s competing for about 1/8th (12%) of the hiring spots. His resume is weak. I’ve seen hundreds of them. Might he be hired? Yes. Likely? No.
If a U.S. legacy airline is his goal he’d probably be better off getting a U.S. regional job instead of continuing at his current job.

Thanks for your feetback, does flying for an airline with all their aircraft been N registered counts as 121 time or not? I understand we are under FAA rules. Also next year im probably transitioning to captain to start build hours as 320 PIC, so im expecting to have at least 1000 h as PIC when i get my Green Card.

Juan, trying to apply to AA without even a work permit or green card is a little pretentious, you should also know by now what kind of operation Avianca does. If you fly N registration aircraft for a foreign carrier you are under 129 Which is not exactly 121, very different.
Even with some PIC turbine time your best route is (once you get green card, and FAA ATP), to go the regional or LCC route and build some 121 time. PIC will help once you obtain all of the above. Not to mention a 4 year US accredited college degree (highly recommended).
I recommend you get in touch with your buddies ex-Ava who work in the US to get a better insight, which by the way will help you if you are ACDAC and supported the strike last year, otherwise you can forget about it.
Good luck, feel free to PM me any time...
