Maybe sim is too booked and they're waiting to call. Is the 3 month wait you referred to is perhaps after completing all the steps?canadian_aviator_4 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 8:59 pm
Did you apply to encore? Higher starting pay and much quicker path to AC.
I applied to encore and porter as well but no dice yet.

Re: New hire bids
Are new hire classes still pretty much just YYZ or YUL? Any updates on how long to get to YVR? Thanks...

Should be able to hold yvr within 6 months.
Re: New hire bids
I don't think so any ATPLs. Low time pilots mostly.canadian_aviator_4 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 26, 2023 12:47 pm How many atpls? And if there are any, what are their odds at staying till the end of training?
Re: New hire bids
Anyone with some experience would be stupid not to go to Porter. FO starting pay is much higher and if you have some time a quick upgrade would put you nearly DOUBLE what Jazz pays a new captain. Also the flow to AC is going to a trickle for this summer so there’s that as well.

Re: New hire bids
Porter has scheduled GS for the foreseeable future. I assume jazz reductions?…
Re: New hire bids
Can't imagine that to be true. We can't staff what we have now.

Place your bets, what base and what equipment will be reduced on the next equipment bid?

Just a summer thing, as they need everyone they can find to be online. Hence the slow down to AC. Groundschools will resume come the fall.CaptDukeNukem wrote: ↑Sun Apr 30, 2023 7:06 pmAgreed.

Re: New hire bids
Didn’t you get PFO’ed by Jazz? Where are you getting those info? You said there were 2 YVR Q spots and no ATPL in the last ground school which was incorrect.

Re: New hire bids
Yes, o was going to go back in his/her/they/ them’s posts to see that, I thought the PFO was Encore but there’s no way if this isn’t a troll account that they would have the information they have been putting out about Jazz.Turboprops wrote: ↑Sun Apr 30, 2023 9:34 pmDidn’t you get PFO’ed by Jazz?

Re: New hire bids
The below post was made April 9, this poster has no inside knowledge of Jazz, just ignore!
Re: New hire bids
Hi,
Do you guys know when the next ground school is scheduled ?
By any chance what airplanes are available for the next gs ?
Been 10 days since i did my sim eval and waiting for a decision now.
The group i did my sim eval none of them got a reply yet either
Thank you

Get used to waiting. When you apply to air canada from jazz it will be a year. I recommend applying to encore and porter, and avoid jazz.waliduss wrote: ↑Mon May 08, 2023 7:34 pm Hi,

Re: New hire bids
There’s no way to know what will be available until they tell you on the 1st day. Lately all types have been available in YYZ and YUL and a few western spots I think on the Qwaliduss wrote: ↑Mon May 08, 2023 7:34 pm Hi,
