According to their website, new hires are responsible for transportation and housing at training. Is this true, still? Also, does it pay @ 1st year rate x only 60 hrs while in training? That being the case, you can be in the hole after first month. Tough if you have bills to pay.

Company pays for your hotel. 1300ish a month while in training.

How long does it usually take between the moment you apply and actually getting the call?

Different experience for me. My airlineapps app for gojet was initially submitted over a year ago. My gojet page with info like flight hours, and date available for start of employment were all over a year old when they called me for interview. Kinda Weird. typically an airline that doesn't have a hard time finding pilots won't offer an interview to someone who's app hasn't been updated for over a year. But my experience only speaks for myself as 1 person and not for everyone applying.

Could somebody please take the time to post a non biased summary of GoJets. The good, the bad and the ugly. I know there is some basic info on APC, but how about, training, travel & health benefits, cancelation pay, bidding, trip trades, commuter clause (or lack thereof.) etc.

Also, if anyone every has been refused the jumpseat, please share the story. Not trying to start a fire with this, but if it does really happen, it should be something to consider. For someone thinking of applying with the intention to commute, this rumor needs to be either verified, or put to bed.

Its a shame that every time we get close to sharing some useful information, the thread gets shut down by a miniature schnauzer. (Although some of those captions were hilarious!)

Dude, pro tip: ask if any GoJet/antigojet cat would be willing to PM u to ask a few about the company. This is the most effective, drama free, no bs approach.

Even if you don't wanna try to start a fire, it's almost inevitable when you ask a broad question like that, specially the JS part. Not ur fault tho, it's just how this whole subject has evolved.

Give it a shot, worked wonders for me...

Fair point, but I had the crazy idea that since Transtates was hiring / upgrading now, and its quite apparent that GoJets is here to stay, it might be time to spill the beans.
Instead of closing the thread, maybe the mods can just police it and delete any flame bait.

Or, if anyone would like to PM me with the skinny I would appreciate it.

The real shame is that APC posters are unable to follow a simple set of rules and the mini-schnauzer has to get involved?
