I find it interesting that 9 out of 10 Atlas guys (and gals) claim that Atlas will hire as soon as minimums are met. I was recently at a job fair and was fortunate to have the chance to meet a recruiter (great group). Although hiring mins are 2000TT and 500 jet, the recruiter informed me that they are looking for pilots with much more flight time. At the time, I had just over 2500 TT, 1050 jet, 121 experience, no checkride busts or driving infractions, and I'm bilingual (almost trilingual if French conjugations weren't a weakness of mine). He asked about internal recommendations and I informed him that I had 4. Still haven't even gotten the online assessment haha. Oh well. Patience is key!
