What Pilots Are Getting The Good Pilot Jobs?
Hiring has started again at the majors and many other airlines. That is good news for pilots looking for jobs. This is probably the beginning of 3-4 years of good pilot hiring before the next down turn so the earlier a pilot gets a good job the better.
As usual it is who you know that is one of the biggest factors in getting hired. I often wonder why airlines continue to hire this way. It would seem that many airlines would be missing out on good pilots by doing this. I am seeing it now with my friends that are getting the good pilot jobs, they knew someone who took their resume in or wrote them a letter of recommendation.
So if Joe is a good pilot for your company and he recommeds his bud that guy must be a good guy also. What BS. Why the airlines can't go to a pure random selection based on qualifications I don't know?
