Atlas Interview on the 16th Jan in Miami
 
Guys,

Received a call from AC from HR on the 4th and got an interview date which was confirmed on the FAPA job fair on the 6th Jan.
Have not received any info or may accidentally have deleted it out of my spam folder.
Anybody who will interview on the 16th Jan care to send me a PM with the details?
Location, time, what to bring, all the good stuff.
Thank you very much.

(Yes I did call and left a message)

Congrats. Would you mind sharing your credentials, times etc? Just trying to gauge the meter for what an acceptable interviewee looks like.

Just be aware of first year earnings of approx. 35k before taxes. OE is backed up with no end in sight.

good luck!
And I l know to some, $35k/yr is ridiculous.
But when you're makkng $25/yr (barely) it's huge bonus, especially w/ the prospect of much more down the road.
Right or wrong, it is what is is.

And there are much better options than Atlas out there that have the same or lower requirements: Kalitta for one. Allegiant, Jet Blue, ABX, etc, etc.

What job pays only 25k now a days? Since you used to have to have thousands of PIC or be from the military just a few short years ago to get hired at Atlas, I'm curious after you said that. I know most regionals pay way more than that especially with signing bonuses.

Don't bring that frame of mind to Atlas.

There are a lot of problems at Atlas, no question about it. But $35K is not the norm. I just finished my first year and my W-2 shows $63,700. And I DID NOT pick up a single VX trip, although I did get extended involuntarily twice.

That's what RJ pilots make. Are you delusional?
