I hope he gets to his 17 year flow through at Envoy soon. Maybe he will stop hating on us because we got AA flying.

Op's question
I am usually a lurker and had to register to post on here. I don't want any part of the storm you guys are kicking up. I did however, recently interview for a CQFO position. Whatever they state the minimums to be, what they don't state is they want you to be currently flying 121/135/military. I left a 121 operator 6 months ago and they immediately stated in the interview that I would not qualify. Even though that was the entire reason I was there. They also stated that they had refused guys more qualified than me because they were not currently at a 121 job. Even though that was the basis of my being there in the first place. They then attempted to sell me on the idea of joining as an FO anyway at the lower pay rate with the insistence that upgrade and growth were so close it would be irrelevant that I had not been a CQFO. I have no opinion as to why any of this is the way it is. I am merely relaying the facts. For anyone considering it, please be very vigilant when making initial contact. Ask as many question of the recruiter before you travel for the interview and make sure you are both on the same page. Remember, it is your time and money as well.

Buyer beware! Do you want to work for a company that comes out of the gate with dishonesty? They knew this guys qualifications, brought him out knowing they wouldn't hire him as a CQFO, only to try and bait him into being stuck as an FO at a company with tired hand me down airplanes and a limited shelf life! Sad!!!

Anyone not current can apply for the right seat and upgrade like everyone else.
You're so stupid you are telling people not to go to Trans States because of the history of management, but recommeded for them to go to Compass. You do know the DO that made TSA such an oppressive place to work is now the DO at Compass right?
Like I said. You're senile. Go get help.

The guy below just said he was called for a CQFO position. CQFO. Not FO. Reading comprehension dummy. When he got there they tell him he is not qualified for the CQFO, which they would have known way before dragging him out there. So next they try to "sell" him on a regular FO position. That is just slime ball tactics.
So go ahead. Keep trying to move away from the actual discussion by calling me old, stupid, that my wife is a prostitute, etc. If the moderators want to let you guys keep up the personal attacks, well then I guess we can all play right?
