They require you to live within 1 hour of the airport you are based at. I was at 45 minutes and they were concerned about it. They even checked it on mapquest when I did my interview and asked me how long it took me. Seemed to be pretty adamant about the 1 hour, but closer to 45 minutes.

 

Commuting is not allowed. You must be within 1 hr of your particular base. The closer the better.
When the time comes that you get the call for a min 2 hr show, they don't want you to have to be sitting in uniform with keys in hand.
The closer you live, the more time you have to goof off/get ready prior to leaving for the airport.

 

for the BUF SIC position. what is the type aircraft you would be assigned to?
also for the interview what is the entire process like?
Thank you in advance!

 

I can't speak for the open slot in BUF.

But the interview will consist of the following.
- meet at 9am downstairs in the lobby
- tour the hangar and planes
- presentation on the company and background
- 3 seperate 1-on-1 interviews with CP, ACP and HR
- 26 ? ATP type written
- Lunch

Be yourself and enjoy your time in KC

 

Thank you for your response sounds good. So the contract is 6months or does it depend on experience?

 

How?

 

My buddy interviewed today and had nothing but good to say about everyone and the experience. He said they made him feel right at home throughout the process and should know more within a few weeks.

 

Morning Everyone,

I've been reluctant to write this post regarding Executive Air Share, but here it goes.

I interviewed with EAS at their headquarters in Kansas City the last week of March. However, I was not offered a FO position with the company and found out by letter I a week later. No phone call, no email, and no personal touch. Also, coincidentally the letter was dated the same day as my interview.

Needless to say, I wanted to find out why I had been dismissed so quickly so I could use the information to better myself for other interviews down the road. Therefore, I wrote Ben Petersen one of the many Assistant Chief Pilots and the gentleman who granted me an interview with EAS in the first place an email inquiring as to why I had been dismissed from the interview process so hastily. No response. Less than a week later I wrote Ben Petersen another email asking why I had been dismissed from the interview and also asking when I could expect my reimbursement check for travel expenses to and from the interview.

YOU MUST UNDERSTAND... I WAS TOLD BEFORE I TRAVELED TO KANSAS CITY THAT EXECUTIVE AIR SHARE WOULD COMMIT TO A $500 TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT.

Again no response. Therefore, I contacted Cathy Caballero who also conducted part of the interview, and who is also the Head of Human Resources asking when I could expect my $500 travel expenditure check. She responded in an email saying I could expect reimbursement in 2-3 weeks from my interview date. I'm thinking great... Finally someone from the company who has the decency to write me an email that took 2 seconds to write.

It's now been almost 6 weeks since my interview and still

NO $500 CHECK FOR TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT

I have subsequently written emails to the following pilots and HR representative. All of whom were in the interview process in Kansas City: Ben Petersen - Assistant Chief, Alex Franz - Chief Pilot, Daniel Ireson - Assistant Chief, and Cathy Caballero - Director of Human Resources. Today is the 10th of May and every single one of them is still ignoring my repeated attempts at repayment.

Honestly I don't care that I wasn't hired by EAS, who would after this fiasco, but I'm thoroughly disgusted at their lack of professionalism and blatant lies. Plus, who doesn't want their $500 back as first promised?

 

You actually expect to get an answer back why you were not hired?

 

Unless he was hired all he will get is a letter in the mail saying he didn't get the job.
