|  SkyWest interview advice They do not hire with pilots with lower then their published minimums, even if they have your resume and invite you to an interview. Trust me call and clarify, you will waste your money and time preparing for an interview that will only last three hours. All three guys that I interviewed with were short the required time, and we all went home. Somebody made a mistake. Dang, I really wanted this one!!

| Re: SkyWest interview advice Well, they're allegedly hiring below their published mins if you have Pt 121 jet experience; I think that's where the disconnect may have been. Sucks that they brought you in for an interview without having looked closely at your resume. That, or the left hand isn't on the same page as the right down there.

| Re: SkyWest interview advice I agree...they can pretty much pick and choose, and don't need to lower mins. |

| Re: SkyWest interview advice 1230 TT, 50 multi, 70 instrument. So technically I was way off. They couldn't possibly have thought I was close, or miss read my resume. Oh well, got the call from Mesaba this morning, I start October 8th

| Re: SkyWest interview advice If you know somebody you can get hired under 1000. I know a guy there who got hired into the bro this spring with 700tt (but he knew someone). Ive also met a guy there who slipped under the radar and they hired him at 19y/o.
