A friend of mine was hired recently with no degree and only 250 hours turbine. Is this becoming the norm at United ?

I wouldn’t call it the norm. I have friends with a respectable-but-not-too-much amount of turbine time having trouble getting the call. Including some who can check certain boxes on the application. It’s difficult to understand what HR is looking for at the moment.

Hey now, those were some hard earned 250 hours of riding the right seat of an Airbus with animals on the tail. I’m sure they knocked those TMAAT questions out of the park with their whole 250 hours of experience flying the line.

Pretty much. It used to be difficult to get a call from United without having extensive experience. Now anyone with a pulse is getting hired.

Yet I know a few with TPIC and already sitting pretty at a legacy, want UAL to avoid commuting for decades, not being called. I would love to learn the strategy of this pilot hiring team at United. Their hiring methods have been bizarre lately.

Seems like the vast majority of people I know who have received interview invites from United went out of their way to let them know they were interested aka stood in line to meet UAL pilot hiring team at a job fair. If they’re at a competing legacy, they’re probably not trying hard enough to get to United (which has even been a trend for most of the AA Wholly Owned RJ pilots now that they’re making up to $427/hr), or they failed the hogan/ CPP/ Aviate interview too many times in their past lives.

This is not true. I have multiple friends—who I have flown with—who are sharp pilots with good resumes at LCC/non-UA regional who have received a TBNT recently.

I know the interview process can be a crapshoot but seeing some of the resumes UAL has said yes to, and then seeing those friends get the TBNT, has me quite confused.

TBNT after the interview, or TBNT simply after applying?
