About the process
 
First of all thanks for your attention. I want to know if someone can help me with information about the process of been hired. Sim, test, med exams etc. Also I’ve been living abroad working and studying for a while , i have a 4 and a half years degree on international affairs (of course from a foreign university), should this be a problem on their preferences? Do i have a good chance to get hired? Many thanks .

No sim or company medical exam. Just an interview if you can get one. They hire a lot of Avianca guys with similar qualifications so I’m going to say that yes you have a good chance. Especially if you have some internal recommendations.

Educated guess. The last FO I worked with was from Avianca.

I've heard that our Avianca hires have been solid guys. Glad they landed on their feet.

Glad to hear that, and happy to see that we have other good opportunities out there. After the strike last year we did not get to much at this point ,and all legal front take long time in Colombia. :)

Agreed. Even under our old contract I have no idea why anyone would work at a South American carrier if they have a legal right to work in the United States. The money they pay those guys is ridiculous. Now it’s a no brainer. Haven’t had any issues with any of them. Only a little slow on the radio on the ground in places like lax or ord but that’ll get better with time. Great guys.
