GIVE IT A REST. You've personally taken up half a page worth with your "entitlement generation" rhetoric and you know none of the people posting questions and starting new threads. Has it occurred to you Atlas hires people in their 40's?? That they may be the ones posting and starting new threads? They're the "entitlement generation"? Move on, we get your view. There are much bigger things to complain about. I am proud you've read the ENTIRE thread. I'd give you a medal if I had one.

I'm still in the process...very early in the process...but going to the OBAP job fair this week and looking forward to meeting the recruiters again! Let's make it happen this time around.

I appreciate all the posts that those of us before have posted for this thread. After I read the complete thread, I realize how invaluable this thread truly is. Spending a day reading this thread, is a drop in the bucket on the return from being offered a position with Atlas. I'm glad it's a complete thread with much information on hiring and everything you would want to know about Atlas. So let's get back to one thread. This entitlement generation that think they can't take the easy road is disgusting. Grow a pair and read the thread if you truly are Atlas material I believe you would read the thread. I'm certainly not trying to take any shortcuts, I stay up on the thread, attend job fairs, update my profile and hope to someday get called by Atlas. What have you done lately, other than whine about reading the thread?
Look up the information you need using KTYBYRD's handy-dandy index, and just relax. The last person any of us wants in the cockpit is someone spouting off against what he feels is the "entitlement generation" (I'm 30, so yes, you're probably trying to lump me into that group). Your attitude will determine whether or not you're hired, not the number of MegaThread™ pages you've read.

Keep the faith. 29 more retirements to go this year, 31 next year. Adding the 3 GSS -8's this year, 24 more new hires just announced. It's not explosive growth, but it's growth. Keep updating. Attend the job fairs that Atlas attends. Stay current. And stay informed.
Good luck.

You are welcome, WARich, for the information. It is nice to have our contributions noticed and appreciated. Personally, during my pursuit of a job with Atlas I had a tremendous amount of help from posters on this thread and, with no practical way to pay them back (other than the obligatory beer), I simply "pay it forward" to the next wave of new hires. Interestingly, the general tone of this thread mirrors the tone on the line. Line pilots seem to excel at assisting and supporting each other which is a tremendous help when rapidly changing events start to stack up against you (which seems to be SOP during many of our operations).

Also, why aren't there 25 upgrades to staff all the extra jets?
