Anyone know when it will open?

Excellent, thanks for the update!

4 guys did phase III with the good Doctor on the 27th. Sue said a "small class" beginning of October. They were Sept. Oct. Nov. 2012 phase I&II. Sounds like possibly more. They will be going to a new hiring format. Congrats to the new 18!

Are all 18 coming from previous interviews or will new interviews be held?

If I'm reading that correctly... you're saying that HAL does their own physicals? Or is that an in house term for some higher up?

I don't know.
Dr. Farkus administers Phase III. 900 psych Q's, fill out paperwork and drug test.

Dear god man.

what do you mean by "they will be going to a new hiring format"?
Are you saying after these 4, or after this vacancy bid is filled?

Will the 18 be coming from the current pool?

Is their a pilot friendly AME to recommend in the HNL area?

I'm wondering, did anyone ask Flt Ops if they will be opening a new window or filling the vacancies from the pool?
You know what Mama said, Never hurts to ask.

Online app window will be open Sep12-21. Will also have to e-mail a resume in during that window.
Rumors in the puzzle palace say about 1,000 pilots around 2020.

I'm guessing 6000 applicants?

Heallz yeah bouy!! I'm in. I plan on jumpseating throughout the system in the next couple o weeks so I can get some krazy-*** karma yo. Kingairs, I'll be out in Maui to hit you up Bro. This is great news! You think an FO on a E145 has a good shot? I hear they hire all kindsa folks. Mahalo.

New hire class Sept. 25th!

:D That's some funny sh!t.

There you are again..

I have had great luck with Dr Richard Ando in Honolulu for first class medical
- (808) 538-1915.

Does anyone know where pilot jobs are posted for applicants once the window opens? I am writing this (early) morning on the 12th and I do not see any pilot jobs posted on the Hawaiian air site for external applicants just yet.

It will be in the location you looked at, just not posted yet.

It's only 730am hawaii time. You know nobody is there until at least 9-930 brah

Doesn't look like it's opening today??

Still 3:20 there...

It's open now...

...Applied!

There are only 18 positions for the B717 (inter island ) so if you get the job you WILL be seat locked for years.

Hawaiian time.... Get used to it.

It's a 2 year seat lock right?

I believe that the first four of the eighteen are coming from the previous pool. In effect then, there are 14 openings. Don't worry about what airplane you're going to be assigned...just get the job.

Application in, but man there are a couple tricky areas. I should have at least one letter of rec coming from a HA pilot in the coming week, but at the time of applying I said 'No' to letters of rec as I did not receive one just yet. It doesn't look like you can go back and edit that part later. The question on flight time gave only two choices, for how much turbine PIC you had... no option for '0'.

I emailed them about this and it has been fixed, there is now an option for no PIC time.

Did they change it for you? I cannot seem to access that part of the app again without having to redo everything.

there are now 4 options for that question:
none, 0-500,500-100, or over 1000

FYI, the app asks three semi-essay questions. Not sure if the site would time out on you if you took too long, but it would be good to have answers to these questions:
- Please tell us what attracted you to flying, and how you came to this point in your aviation career.
- Tell us something about yourself that we may not otherwise learn during the application process.
- Why do you want to work for Hawaiian Airlines?

Good luck!

Life-long dream, third try....please baby jesus...

They emailed me a new link to update the app. Try emailing them and see if they can do the same for you.

What was the addy you emailed them at?

App is in...competition will be tough. Mahalo for all the great insights here!
Just hoping for an interview. Please baby Jesus, mother ocean, and all that is holy.
Recommend preparing 321's questions in word and be ready to paste into app. There is no ability to save and return.

Any words surfacing on the change in interview format? Still the Farq gauntlet?

Rumor is several hundred applications already, for about 14 openings. Extremely competitive, shear numbers and math make this a tough go this time around. These openings are for retirements...but don't be discouraged...if you really want to fly for Hawaiian the real hiring will occur late 2016 / early 2017; so you have time to get your qualifications and references / letters of recommendations. It's an excellent career choice, particularly if you want to live the island life...best of luck!!!!
