Amazing. You could tell recruits "At Copa, the FO holds a gun to your head on approach. If you deviate from the GS more then a dot, he blows your brains out and takes the controls from your bleeding corpse." Desperate and ignorant pilots will still line up to interview.
I don't get it. This place is a dump. Have some integrity people.

Copa Application
A few months ago HR at Copa e-mailed me looking for documentation to complete my application. I send the requested documents and received an e-mail saying that they had everything they needed and would let me know if they wanted to interview me. That was the last I heard from them and other people tell me they had the same thing happen. Is there any word on when interviews will happen? Does Copa need pilots right now?

Copa App
I’m planning on contacting them next week but don’t know if I should call or e-mail. My Spanish is better than beginner but not great, especially if the connection is bad. Do they really have 4000 apps for an overseas job that pays $800 per month during IOE?

With thousands of regional-airline Pilots in the U.S that would love to get a 737 type so they'd have a shot at Southwest at a later time, yeah I wouldn't doubt it

That's what he told me. He wasn't exaggerating either. Remember they have guys applying from Canada to Argentina. What they pay seems to be in the ball park with other Latin American airlines, so to a Chilean or Venezuelan they look at is differently then you and I. His class had guys with all kinds of experience from all over the world. Also said the training is much harder then any 121 airline in the US, and 3 times longer. So expect to be paid that $800 for about 6 months.

Contacted Copa
I contacted Copa last week about my FO application and they say it will be January or February by the time they look over the applications and start e-mailing people. I know what their official mins are. Does anyone know what it takes to be competitive?
My times are: 5400 Total, 2400 SIC EMJ 145, and 1000 SIC ATR 72
