Employment chances

Post by joco »

Hi all,
Got a friend, thinking to get CPL and look for something in this field. He is a visible minority from middle east.
Language is ok, he's in Canada for 10 years now.
Do you see visible minorities being hired on a constant basis? Does he have a real chance?
Thank you,
joco

Why wouldn't visible minorities be hired?

I know lots of guys who are VM's, and are in good or great positons. No better or worse than Caucasians.

Thank you flying4$

This was my belief as well, but he asked me to look into it on an aviation forum.
Cheers,

If one doesn't try... one doesn't stand a chance.

Have no fear, minority pilots are exploited and treated every bit as badly as white pilots in Canada.

SF: He is not a visitor on this forum, and a bit shy. We work in the same dept in a construction company.

Hedley: .... funny line :)
