EDV telephone interview
Been on the forums for years as a lurker. Thanks to all for the insights. I recently got an email to do a phone interview. Does anyone have an idea of what this consist of?

Really basic. They confirm the stuff on your resume and ask why you want to work there.

But how can they tell if you have a pulse...?
Or can fog a mirror? :D |

Same deal for me, offered a phone interview. How are the reserve times looking? What’s junior at EDV these days?

NYC 900 and DTW 200 seem to be the most junior as far as time to hold a line…minimum of 10 months on property to get to that point. NYC 200 is slightly more senior and everything else is a lot more senior. You won't fly very much on reserve (less than 25 hours a month) unless you're really good at hacking the Flica system.
On the flip side, it's easy to make a lot of money as an FO, even on reserve. I listened to flydiamond's advice a year ago when I was making the decision on where to go. I'm glad I did. I'm now averaging about 100 hours of credit a month, making about 5400$ gross on first year pay, on top of the 10k bonus. I'm really looking forward to my 1-year anniversary which comes with an ~18% pay raise. Sure, I'm not blocking a lot of time in the airplane (about 250 hours in the 6 months since passing my check ride), but I'm on target to make close to 70k my first year here. *If* we get the growth we keep hearing about this September (fingers crossed), then it only gets better from here. As someone who's new to the industry, I have zero complaints about being here, *especially* compared to what new hires went through before us for the vast majority of regional flying's history. |

Would agree with this.
