I live in St Pete. True that Signature is usually hiring. Also, the bars (like the place I work) and restaurants start hiring around the end of Jan. beginning of Feb. to get ready for season. The one down side is any job on the beach is seasonal so from Nov to Jan can be REALLY slow. Some people work on the beach for summer then get a job more inland for the "off-season"

I have lived in Tampa for the past 7 years and I have never heard of a shortage of jobs. As far as jobs at FBO's. I know that Leading Edge Aviation is hiring line techs. www.leadingedgeaviation.com (they have new website being developed and will be launched very soon).

But, I think no matter what you are looking to do, you can do it in the Tampa, St Pete area.

Here is the Tampa Tribs jobs site too.

Good luck,

Rob in Tampa

How about Avantair? They have an FBO at PIE in addition to their operations and maintenance facility. There should be some sort of opportunity that could get you a foot in if you wanted to fly for them in the future. I know one of their FOs worked in scheduling before flying for them.
Best of luck.

Thanks for the info!! I am not sure what is down there because I have not been home in like 3 years. So any more info would be great since I will need some kind of job right away to pay for apartment and what not.

Thanks
Nick
