How did the interview go? I have my next week and would like to know how you organized your materials (application, records, etc.) for submission to Comair. Anything else you can tell us about the interview? By the way...hope you get a phone call drummflyer...

I had the paperwork that gets handed to them in a folder, and copies of that, my military records, logbook print out and originals of my license, passport, etc. in a 3 ring binder with a nice Comair RJ photo on the cover. The binder lets you access stuff really quick, and you can get pages made to hold business cards and photos to arrange the hard items (card holder for your license, 4x6 picture holder for passport/med). Keeps it all in one spot. They'll give you a folder with a bunch of HR stuff too. Plus when you interview elsewhere you just need to update it and swap out the cover

Good Luck.

Yep... management went to the bankruptcy judge to impose an 11% pay cut, and Delta is handing some of their jets to Skywest.

Search for Comair at Yahoo finance or CNBC... or scroll through this board and you'll build the picture. How the heck did you know what questions to ask in the interview without knowing this?!?!?! Non-aviation Interview 101.

They're in hiring mode, but when you can't get work from your parent company, could be a warning sign. You did interview with other companies, right? Not saying you should turn Comair down, but you should have a back-up plan....

FWIW, I turned down a Jan 8th start date. I'm done flying.

One would think you would do the research BEFORE accepting the class date... You don't buy a fridge and THEN go see what Consumer Reports had to say about it...

For all who are preaching gloom and doom about Comair,, GET A LIFE none of the regionals ie Express jet, Skywest, TSA, PSA, Mesaba,Mesa, Pinnacle, Eagle ect ect are without their own set of problems, go where you think is best for you and do your job, this industry is unpredictable.. Hell even the Majors and Legacy carriers have their own issues. as for the Rumors, if you are not at a perticular carrier you dont do any good by spreading rumors., I can say first hand that Comair has a strong pilot group and the rest of the regionals can learn a thing or two from them remember they are responsible for rasing the bar pre 9-11 however we at Comair both management and the Pilot groupe will work trough our differences and we will get trough this difficult time in the industry when every one seems to be racing to the Bottom
