Who knows, I could have misunderstood him. It would be strange to do a sim eval, then a full interview after that.

Hi everyone,
Just wondering what the status of hiring these days at Air Japan? Are they still looking for guys? Would an RJ FO with no PIC time in the RJ have a chance (with the their mins being met) or is it one of those that guys with a lot more time are applying? Also I've seen the training time footprint; what takes so long? Also what is the percentage of washouts during training and on the line? For guys living in the states, can you request ORD overnights? Thanks so much for any help.

@aviatorman. They are actively hiring, the average experience of the F/O's joining as I have seen is about 4 to 5 thousand hours and they do have some PIC time. AJX doesn't fly to ORD. Your questions about training and washout rates have been discussed in length in this very thread by all the regular contributors, I know it is a massive thread that has been going on for years but if you go back a couple of years and start reading, you will find all the information you need and even some you didn't know you needed.

ANA JP Express or Air Japan??
 

Howdy all. It's been a while since the last post. Any updates with recent/scheduled interviews? Process change at all? I read every page on this board this summer gearing up to apply, then decided to move the family cross country. Now that I'm settled, I'm thinking about applying....desperate to move on from the regionals.
Thanks

Do what I did. Don't ask for help on forums! Call recruiter directly. You'll find answers to your question with out the hassle of lazy members here telling you to read 300 pages of thread. Ofcourseyou can choose to follow that route if you have no life and you are a regular visitor here.

Sorry, but the lazy members are the ones who do not want to read the previous posts and have us repeat the same information that has already been posted. If you are truly interested in the job you will take the time to read the previous posts to find the information you need. After doing that, if you can't find your answer then ask and there are plenty of members here that are happy to help.

By all means, go ahead and do that because we all know how the head hunters have YOUR best interest in mind and will always give you straight and honest answers, specially about issues like failure rates and training periods.:rolleyes:

I'm still not going to post what I have posted over and over again (feeling a little lazy today:D) you can go back and read it, or not.

The interview process is the same, interviews are ongoing as their intention is to double AJX in size, their attention is now into hiring F/O's and not so much DEC's because their captains needs are being met with the upgrade program. Classes are being filled lately with a mix of Qantas guys, a few pilots from the EU and regional guys from the US.

There is a recent interview experience that I thought was pretty good, you count your lucky stars that all I have to do is copy and paste ;)

Great link Dom, thanks! With your reference earlier to the transition in company leadership etc, it sounded like there potentially are changes on the horizon. Like I said earlier, I have read every page of this thread (maybe not retained every detail) but feel like I'm quite familiar with the process and have taken notes for reference later. I don't frequent fly for food, so I suppose this is a wake up call that I should.

Thanks for the update

Apparently the utilization of AJX will expand under the new administrative structure, they have indicated that they want to double us in size but they have kept tight lipped about everything else. ANA is in a good position right now and they have remained steady in their vision even during difficult times such as the tsunami disaster, the world economical downturn and the geopolitical tensions, will see where it goes from here, we all will be just along for the ride I guess.
Or maybe is like my father say, that when the future in a company looks promising, it is time to start printing resumes.:D
