The previous post is very accurate. That is actually a good experience!
However, one of the above posters is an IOE instructor for SkyLease.
SkyLease in very few words was the worst flying experience of my flying career.
If I took the time to mention what is rotten with that operation, I would need a separate thread
There are good pilots there, and good people too, I wish them all the best.
I do not know anyone who wants to stay there, even the ones who live minutes from MIA.
If you are a high time MD11 captain and can live near MIA, this may be a place for a few months until you regain currency or hired by World, or Fed Ex.
To any 1000 hr pilots with dreams of flying the MD11, I say good luck, this may be where you can get that. The 3000 hrs hiring minimums do not apply.
If you are hungry, unemployed and out of currency, like a poster above, I understand, and God bless you.
Honestly though, I could not imagine anyone wanting to put themselves through this experience, unless they are desperate.
That is the moral of this story. SkyLease preys on the desperate, myself included.
If you still choose to apply...
Good luck to you.
