AWAC Call for interview time?
 
How long does it usually take for AWAC to call you if they are interested in you coming in for an interview?

Depends, but usually no longer than 3-4 weeks.

Friend says 4 weeks. They usually aren't interested in folks with former 121, because they don't want the bad eggs from other co's.

I don't see why they would not want you just because you have prior 121! Alot of people like me are switching due to domiciles and qol! It has nothing to do with being a "bad pilot."

I have never heard this "bad egg" theory. There are lots of guys here with previous 121 and in fact about a year before I was hired it was all but a requirement to have it. I wouldn't worry about it. Hope you get a call... unless you are a bad egg... or bad pilot... or whatever...

Not correct.

Absolutely not correct. I had four people in my class coming from prior 121 experience.

Good one guy.... just flew with someone from the training dept. They have an ENTIRE class right now from BigSky (8 ppl)....just held a job fair in MKE for Skyway guys and had an excellent turnout. I think prior 121 beats 400tt/50 multi.

i don't know how to categorize this one: it's either the funniest or the dumbest thing i heard in a while...

I'm going with dumbest. There was a time not all that long ago where prior 121 was practically a prerequisite.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 04:38 AM.
