Online Application

I just visited the WestJet website and tried to start a online application but was unable to find a pilot job posting. Does anyone know if you have to wait for them to post a job opening or is there another way to start a profile? I couldn't find anything on workopolis either.

Thanks

Good thing about it in the Artic is that North Bay (Artic Radio) Keeps your flight plan rather than send it to Edmonton (which...
