Civilian New Hire Stats?
Hello, just curious what that stats are for civilian new hires? Haven’t gotten a call but here are my stats:
5600 TT
1100 Jet Pic
Bachelors degree
No incidents, accidents, violations
Current 121 captain
Seems to me they like to hire guys from my airline that are at about 10 yr longevity with 8000 plus hours.

Two years ago for me:
7000+
1200 TPIC
4100 regional 121
2600 91 corporate
Training Manager
3 types (incl 737)
CFI alphabet
Volunteer work
Majority civies in my class had the type and similar times/backgrounds. Of course, the 737 type stat is no longer the case with new hires.

Was told in August during my sit down with a recruiter pilot at OBAP that my 9000 plus TT and 2100 plus 121 PIC was just starting to become competitive. They said everything looked great just keep applying in each window. My app went "under review" in that window, but now closed complete and no calls. I've been applying for 5 years so maybe one of these days they'll get to my lower qualification level, at least pray they do.

It is wonderful here. Totally different than anything you've ever experienced...worth the wait, definitely worth the effort.

Anyone know what the avg age has been in recent classes? I also remember reading something about them trying to vary the ages a little so as not to have a giant retirement bubble further out.

Civilian New Hire Stats?
The downside for those of us hired in our mid 40s is only having around a decade (medical permitting) in the left seat.
