rickair & jetjock,
I submitted an application on the skywest website almost a week ago, how long does it usually take for a reply? Maybe hr is just backed up!!! I'll wait another week... :cool: http://www.skywest.com/careers/pilot/groupinterview.php If you can't make it to one of the events and you don't get a call within the next week then drop me a line and I'll help you out. Best of luck! |

9. The process itself is easy...jet bases (I'm not familiar with seniority on the Bro, someone else will have to answer)
PSP, SBA, SMF are super senior COS, TUS, DEN, SLC are generally attainable within a year as a FO MKE, ORD are very junior, expect one of these out of training SFO, LAX are reserve only... so only ABOUT 8 pilots total at each ATL was fairly junior but it's shrinking so hard to know, probably in the same category as COS/DEN and so on. |

I'll wait another week... :cool: Back in the day, it could take a year or two. I assume they are just out for the holidays, but the response time can be variable...sometimes same day, sometimes months. If you're 121 you will probably get called more quickly than otherwise. The best thing is to have someone walk your resume in or call/email the recruiter on your behalf...that usually get's immediate results. |
Question...
I'm going to be applying to Skywest in the near future, where do you see me being placed. I have no previous 121 experience, just CFI'ing, but I live in Chicago. Will they give me ORD if I make the point that I live in Chicago? |

I thought ORD was the most junior base? When do you find out your base assignment? Would you be able to transfer bases after a certain amount of time?

I was hired in Sept and there are guys in my class that were awarded DEN and COS for Jan.
ORD is very junior. If you bid it, it's yours. |
