AA Interviews
 

What are the parameters today to land an interview at American. I know it changes quite frequently but what are the latest requirements to be able to get an interview?

Here's what Google said. Hope this helps.

"To fly for American Airlines, you'll need a valid FAA Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate, which requires a specific number of flight hours, a first-class medical certificate, and a radiotelephone operator's permit. You must be at least 23 years old, pass a background check and drug test, and meet the company's holistic evaluation criteria, which includes strong communication skills, leadership, and decision-making abilities. A bachelor's degree is preferred but not required."

best of luck

In May recruitment came and said the competition is around 4800TT 1000TPIC

>3000 TT
>500 121 TPIC

Seems to be about the extreme low end of the spectrum.

121 PIC is not required. Nice to have

1000 multi-engine turbine PIC, at some point in your career, is indeed "basically required"

2000 turbine PIC as a Net Jets Captain, then you go to Frontier, get 500 hours in an Airbus, you will easily be called by AA

etc stuff

Long time lurker first post.

Got the cjo recently, 2800tt, 2200multi turbine, 800mtpic, all 135 flying no prior 121. Got the call for the interview after 9 months of updating my app. Don't know anything behind the scenes, but I'd get the app in and keep it updated. Hope this helps.

Does anyone know the current timeline from cjo to class date?

Thanks

3-5 months. July CJOs are being placed in October classes. 3 months if they run 4+ classes every month from October and beyond. 5 months if they start throttling classes but don’t pause. YMMV.

Speaking from personal experience, CJO was 15 July, class date is 01 Oct. Exactly 2.5 months.
