Thanks Motorclutch!

 

Does anyone know if the company reimburses parking at JFK or it's at your own expense ?
Thanks.

 

I wish ABX would do a 'thanks but no thanks' type of thing if they aren't interested in a candidate after we take the time to fill out the application and take multiple tests. Its been radio silence from them thus far and I am a current 767 pilot with a check airman and chief pilot background in the 135 turboprop world. Also have my 4 year degree. I'm left wondering if they simply aren't interested or if I've slipped through the cracks one way or another and just need to get noticed.

Obviously, I'm not owed anything by ABX but I'm pretty sure I fall into the 'qualified' category (maybe I am light on 121/jet time for their tastes- my 76 gig is my first 121 gig and I started last Sep) and they apparently need a lot of people so I would be curious to know why they aren't interested in me- if for no other reason than learning what I need to improve on to get noticed.

I view ABX as a probable career stop and feel a little frustrated by things so far, but maybe I am being impatient. I know that at a smaller company like ABX being at the front of the hiring wave is extremely important, which is why I'm getting impatient. I was waiting for the hiring window to open, and I applied the day it opened. Left a voice mail with Tracy after resubmitting my resume a few days ago, but haven't heard back. *shrug*

 

ABX is no different than most other carriers, and I understand your frustrations. I think that in most cases ones CV does not even get a read until there is a need.
The new hires at ABX (at least the ones that I am aware of) are all highly experienced, with decades in the biz and 10-20 years wide body command time in many cases. ABX will be my last uniform for many reasons, and I hope that it will be a grand finale.

 

I think the parking is free in DHL's JFK parking lot. They typically don't reimburse parking for commuters.

 

Does anyone know for certain if classes will still running throughout the year??

Can a reserve pilot fly above minimum guaranteed during the first year?

Thanks for the responses.

 

I spoke to an ABX Scheduler, and was told to not bother unpacking your suitcase at your commuter crash pad! I think we will stay busy, which is a good thing on Year 1 pay!

 

That sounds great!!! Thanks 741
