For all the recent new hires.....

- what's the range of quals that are getting calls for the interview?
- does military time jump you to the top of the stack?
- what's the timeframe from interview email/call - CJO and class date?

My app is live and updated. 8600+ hrs, non military, 4 types, 121, 135 and 91 time.
Thanks y'all.

For me, I was second lowest in terms of total hours ( just under 4,000 Fighter hours), but I've been an Evaluator/Instrcutor in two different airframes and I fly MX test flights (FCF) as well.

Good luck!

You just may not trigger an invite based solely on your app. It could happen, but go to a job fair or get an internal LOR sent to the recruiting department. Thats how those with less experience than you are doing it. Just my .02

I can't make the OBAP event did to work. Seems there aren't any other events/job fairs coming soon. Will keep researching for the next events and do everything I can to be there.

Thanks JT,
I was a Base Manager and an Asst Chief Pilot for a 135 Fractional Op, but that's not a choice. I listed that in my employment section, but can't list the Check Airman, Chief Pilot or Safety.
