Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Calls went last week for a pit course in August.
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Has anyone actually gotten a call for the Aug PIT course?
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
My friend got the call Monday. SR captain.
Welcome to Redneck Airlines. We might not get you there but we'll get you close!

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Of the last few months when PIT courses were running how many RP spots were offered? Sounds like a good 75% of the new hires were going narrowbody FO. Just curious as it sounds like the RP spots are becoming more sought after at least for commuters.

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Not much RP where offered in the last few months aside from the one in June in think. Currently, a lot of open on the 320 for YYZ... I wouldn't surprised if the next few courses a big chunk of new hires will get that.
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Got an email for inperson. It said they are conducting interviews for fall course dates.
Any tips or any other help for the in-person interview ?

Yeah, ..... wait for it.....just be yourself!!!
Sorry couldn’t resist, makes me laugh when people say that!
Normally a good idea to have ready some examples of when you went above and beyond, any emergencies, any poor performances and why, what do you bring, things like that....and of course watch the medical, get plenty of rest.....good luck.

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
No thanks, I'm already doing that for birth control. Can you recommend someone else to be?
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Are they not running a class every three weeks? Is there nothing planned for October 1st?

Be NickyNick... that will solve all of your interview issues... or be Batman.
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
I would guess that your estimate is accurate. There was one small class that was all 787 RP, but for the most part the classes have been 50% A320, and the other half a collection of other positions. RP spots were popular in my class, most went to the senior half of the class. Your mileage may vary.FighterPilot wrote: ↑Mon Jul 30, 2018 9:49 am Of the last few months when PIT courses were running how many RP spots were offered?

I am commuting, as a mainline 320 FO. I was able to hold a block very quickly, and while I don’t get the most productive pairings, I have managed to concentrate them together to make a reasonable commuting schedule. My July consisted of 2 days on/7 days off/7 days on/7 days off/7 days on. I spent a total of 6 nights in YYZ, 4 of which were between pairings within the 7 day on blocks.
Commuting will always add a challenge, but it is doable, even as a fairly junior narrowbody FO.
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Does anyone know when they had the in-person interview? 1 month ago,2 months ago ,etc...
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Does anyone know the inside workings of the hiring process?
Is it true there’s a panel of people that get together and make the final decision on your application after you’ve interviewed?
How often does this panel meet? Once a month? If this was known one could determine when offers go out...?
