Do you know how the pilot referrals will work. Will there be a link for you all to input one, or do we start hitting up our Alaska buds now to get letters to upload ourselves. Also, any word on the silver bullet? Thanks for any additional info you may have.

Thanks for the info.
Is the app link going to be Alaska's own or Pilotcredintials similar to FedEx and SWA?
Also, are all the interviews conducted in a single day or on multiple visits in phases?
Thanks in advance.

So no PIC requirement?
OBAP=Organization of Black Airline Pilots. Career Fair.
I can't find the mins on the web site either. In Feb. AS was handing out flyers with minimums listed as 1,000 Multiturbine PIC (or Single military jet) or they'll drop the PIC requirement to 750 if you have 2,000 Turbine SIC. Class 1 medical, non-nicotine user, good judgement, good character, etc.
I found you can create the online profile and not apply for a job until it become available.
