If it makes you feel any better, my interviewing class of 11 most people had over 1000/100 (myself included). Only two people had gotten in using the newer, lower rules. Pro tip for people interviewing: If your folder is yellow, it just means you are in the lower mins category and have to sign the 2 year contract. Even then, those 2 people were at like 750/80 multi. Yes that is less than 1000/100 but not too bad. I would say extremes aside (one person was a former F-15/16 pilot), the AVERAGE interview times were around 1000/100. I got the interview call at 1100/115.
Incidentally, one person interviewing was an older gentleman who went through one of those pay-to-play programs. IE "first officer training" where you pay 10-20 grand so sit right seat in something. U have said earlier, your interview group had 11 people & only 6 got the pre-offer, Would U happen to know or can U shed some light on which 5 guys got washed off... Did the 2 lower hrs YELOW FOLDER guys & the older P2F type guy make it through, to get the pre-offer... I am trying to figure out that even though Eagle has lowered the minimums, Is the company & inteviewers still preferring people with higher Flying Times..... |
everything is online and the interview is basically a check ride, study the gouge and don't leave a bad taste in the hr portion and the job should be yours. I don't think they pref to hire based on times.

ORD-DFW is impossible. The flight are ALWAYS full, and there is a LOT of crewmembers going back and forth for training every day, AA and AE.. and they will all be senior to you so you will never get the jumpseat.
ORD-MIA is terrible also, not as bad as ORD-DFW but almost. there's a lot of jumpseats between these cities. I thought the ORD DFW commute was easy. |

If you are invited for an interview, they want you! Fill out the paperwork correctly and honestly. One guy was still finishing it up in the holding tank during my interview. The guys said "Thats fine!" but I think gives a bad impression. Either way, he didnt last long. Read the gouges, know your stuff (91 stuff if you fly 91, 121 if you fly 121, etc). As for the HR, be yourself and just don't be "weird." |
Guys, work on your instrument scan. During the sim check, they are looking for people who make instrument flying look easy. If you look like you are struggling in there, you will not move beyond the sim eval.
Scan, scan, scan. Stay ahead of the "airplane" and don't get lost. |
The latest rumor is to get on property before Oct 1st 2011.

That is no rumor anybody hired prior to October 11, 2011 and on the Eagle seniority list will be offered a new hire position at American Airlines as the vacancies open. Up to 35% of each new hire class will be Eagle Pilots. All pilots on the Eagle list prior to that date have the right to a job at AA. |
I haven't read it for myself on ALPA (thus can't confirm) but sounds interesting.
