Anyone have some examples of a well written resume geared toward Atlas?

Standard pilot resume style? I'm sure they don't give a crap about how many hours single engine land I have lol.

Just bullet points with TT, Turbine, Type, PIC, and SIC for the time breakdown?

Agreed.

I'm just simply saying, the OLD way at least some personal/live interaction took place with an HR/hiring rep on the phone screen. One that told you SPECIFICALLY who to email the followup paperwork to, etc.

Whereas now, it's just not that way.

If your wife will not allow you to attend a job fair to invest time into developing your professional career to provide better care for her and your offspring, then I highly recommend you do not come to work at Atlas as this kind of wife will not support you in anything you do or anything you want to do in your own life unless she is in complete control of it and it makes her "happy". This kind of wife might divorce you eventually anyway because you lack the strength of character to stand up to her and be the actual leader in the relationship.

Either grab a sac and tell the forums you enjoy being submissive and obedient servant to her whims and you want to make her "happy" by staying home and getting a job that will allow you to be home and available everyday because she wants you to be with her......OR.....man up and let her know your career is extremely important to the livelyhood of your offspring with her and go to the job fair and get yourself an amazing job with lots of adventure and some freaking awesome co-workers.

I personally don't want you to look back in 20years from now when you are older and say, bummer, I wish I had a better job and flew at Atlas (or any major), but my wife wouldn't let me go to a job fair to make the connections and do the net working I needed.

Wouldn't you rather look back and say, I made the decision to not attend the job fair and not go to Atlas to be with my wife everyday because I wanted to be home everyday with her and see my baby grow up?

If you want a job at Atlas come and get it by going to a job fair, if you don't want a job at Atlas then don't go to the job fair and try to come here, but certainly don't blame your wife for not "allowing" you to go to a job fair.

Btw, being a stay at home father is great if she can make some good money, however if she is a stay at home mom and you are the only one bring home the bacon, then her primary duty is to care for the home & offspring which you hope is yours anyway (Aristotle reference on how woman are the only gender that knows that a child is definitely theirs).
This reply had me scratching my head. You know absolutly nothing about me, my family life, my values, nor my circumstances. If I'm already working 20 days a month (consecutive) away from home and my wife is okay with that, why the hell would I push that to be gone another couple days? I love my career, but wont sacriface them for a paycheck. You obviously missed the "haha" at the end which you should've figured out was mostly a joke. Maybe you're too "tired" from flying around the world to notice.

Well it can't be that... she's a regional pilot who doesn't work at Atlas yet.

On another note, best of luck, I hope you hear back from them soon!

APC has resources that show resume suggestions and formats.
As for Atlas specific stuff I included bullet points of Atlas' required published minimums: ME-ATP, total time, turbine time, Class 1 Medical, FCC License, Legally authorized to work in the United States, No restrictions on international travel, Current Passport, etc.
(The ability to pass a 10-year security background check and a pre-employment drug test would be evident if you have been airline flying for the past 10 years.)
I also used the PAQ to make sure I covered things from the questions there that seem to be important to Atlas.
Recruiters know how to read between the lines. If you've been flying C-17's or CRJ's there is no need to spell out what those flights entail. Keep it as concise as possible. Airline resumes should always adhere to the K.I.S.S. rule.

And for cripes sake; spell check!

Not only that, she's a Regional pilot, recently hired by Atlas, currently looking to get on at FedEx, who isn't even in type yet. Don't get your feathers fluffed over a Barbie Jet Driver, picking on folks, already drunk with the smell of the whale. I fly the 74, in ANC........you'll be fine. It won't take long for her to show her true colors.......I feel for future female applicants.

Don't ever let internet bullies bring you down (for shame FADECS) Fly for your family and for yourself. Atlas would be happy to have you!

June 11 interviewee, nothing yet.

I've emailed HR a couple times since then and the answer remains the same. Should be late Aug/Sept timeframe for a class.

I would guess that means hearing something later this month or next, in order to get a 2 weeks notice put in.

Scuttlebutt in ANC is that they aren't even through placing all the ANC interviewees, I believe they interviewed back in late April (?); patience young Padawan........your call will come in time. Hang tough poolies, the pool is shallow and they are ramping up class dates.
