One more Netjets Question
Ok, so I'm looking at the Netjets, as far as interviews go do they interview based on the order they accept resumes or once they are in the hiring pool they look at the qualifications then pick from them?
Secondly, anyone know how many resumes have been turned in since the new contract? Since the airlines are going to 65 is that going to affect the number of applicants for NJ??

From: RC-12P Left seat
I am 16 months from retirement from the Army and am looking at NJ as my first choice. I am hoping to be competitive with around 4200tt, 3150 RW, 1050 ME turbine in RC-12's, 750 of that PIC. Of my total 3000 hours is in AH-64A/D, of which 2700 IP/PIC. Type rated in 300 series King Airs, ATP writ complete and will be taking my ATP ride as soon as I get out of Iraq at CAE Simuflite at DFW in the 350 sim. Seem competetive in some of your opinions?

Competitive Mins
Logic tells me they'll hand pick the most qualified people from the pile, which must be expanding rapidly. The hiring mins won't change, but you're gonna start seeing more and more regional kids with jet PIC, and obviously military and corporate dudes. Preference will be given to guys with jet and corporate experience. From the regionals/freight, if you fly a turbo-prop left seat, you'll be fine. If you fly a turbo-prop right seat, you are gonna need some luck. Military guys flying turbo-props from any side, I think they'll be all right as well. I don't think NJ will hire piston guys ever again. (Just my opinion)
I heard a new rumor that since the new TA, NetJets competitive hiring mins are 6000 total and 3000 jet. Is this true or just a rumor? I'm currently in the interview pool and nowhere close to that. Just a little concerned. Thanks for any insight you can shed on this subject.

I was told (by a senior captain at NJ) that the best way to separate you from the herd is to have an internal recommendation. Also, Derinda has said in the past – “once you meet the minimums you are competitive.” Who knows if that is true anymore?

A NetJets recruiter once told me they like to see more on your resume than just flight time. They consider other hobbies, interests and skills outside of flying, so you can better relate to the owners, since you have lots of direct contact with the pax, as opposed to the airlines. I was under the impression that the way to stand out was to emphasize customer service and achievements besides flight times. Is that still the case? Or are they so inundated with applications that it is going to come down to flight time and internal recommendations?
