Good day
I am looking for a current pilot in Rvan connect. I'm applying for the SIC job. They told me that a recommendation from the inside would help me. Is there current pilot around here who can help me and recommend me in the company? I would appreciate it so much
Thanks

 

Someone would have to be a fool to recommend a pilot they don't know/haven't flown with.

 

"Hey HR, here's a resume for a guy I'd recommend"
"Ok cool, how do you know him?"
"I don't?"
"...ok..."

 

Your best bet is email your resume, making sure you meet all qualifications for the job, 12 weeks before their next ground school (see the "ravn crews" website for their next ground school date), follow up email the chief pilot a couple weeks later if no response, second follow up email the chief pilot a couple weeks after that if no response, then buy a "cheap" ticket to their base in Anchorage a couple weeks after that and walk in your resume if still no response. They get a lot of applications for a few spots, so it pays to go the extra mile to show how much you want the job. Personally, I would recommend building hours by flight instructing but there are pros and cons to both. The job at Hageland definitely pays enough as an SIC to be worth paying the money to visit in person. You can always find someone that works there on this site, get to know them by PM, and then ask them for a referral after at least talking with them.

 

Does anyone know when the next ground school is?

 

April from what I've heard.
