I'll hopefully be hitting 1500 hours within the next few months. As of right now I'm sitting at 1200 hours (mostly DA-20, C-152, PA-28) and 120 multi (seminole and Duchess)... Just trying to gauge if I'm on track to have what SKW is looking for.
You can form a sentence.. You know how to fly an airplane. If you can draw a precision runway and a turbine engine I'd say your right up Skywest's alley!

Yup, SAN/CLD domicile was the biggest reason some of us decided to work for SkyWest, then they went and closed it...

Competitive mins are pretty much anyone with ATP mins. I was next to a few corporate pilots in my interview and people with a lot more experience than me but I got the job over them. They don't care where your flight time comes from. They care about your personality and what you would be like on a 4 day trip.

I'd also add that coming in prepared for the interview is crucial. I've personally witnessed folks with great personalities that still didn't make the cut because they either came in unprepared or with an attitude that they had the job in their pocket.

Get your ATP mins, study hard, come in with a good attitude and you'll be fine.

Good luck!
