New-hire classes are pretty last minute around here. Interview and be ready! With the merger and ERJ side now, the chances of getting in a class sooner are better, unless you want a certain base and/or equipment.

Last few new-hires classes went to all three bases ATL/DTW/IAD. What will happen with DFW remains to be seen until the bid comes out.


Figured as much, but is good to confirm it with somebody inside. Although in all honesty i'd like to interview with OO, major reason being the new base (RDU). Spent quite sometime communiting to DTW, totally abhorr ATL, and IAD is way too expensive, and the commute to those 2 is a pain. We'll see. Thanks.

As with everything in aviation, a lot can change and quickly. I wasn't aware that SkyWest had a base in RDU, unless I missed something?!

No sim ride for xjt. The interview is one day. test test test, presentation, in person interview, fingerprints, drug test, fly home

evilboy 09-25-2012 10:28 AM

ooops, my bad......ignore that. And no XJT does not have sim eval anymore, just like Nick above said.

Now that CRJ classes have started the next unanswered questions are when is the vacancy bid coming out and how exactly will the next 16 900s be split between XJT/SKW?

Does it matter that SkyWest doesn't have an ATL base but ASA does?
