Hiring Wave?

ACP - Your comments are very encouraging. I looked into Seneca College, they offer a 4 yr program. After researching on google I came across an article showing Jazz is affiliated with Seneca Students. Apparently they hire students from seneca as cadets. Not sure if that is a myth or truth.

The 4 yr program is not for me. I have already finished Nautical Science in college and went through all the Math, Sciences...etc bridge resource management etc...I suppose this program would be for a kid straight out of high school, to provide them with ATPL and basic life knowledge.

I need an integrated course or modular. Does Jazz, AC. AT really hire pilots with 1000 hrs T.T ? I don't know. I checked out their website through Pilotcareercenter.com and all I see is big numbers like "must have 500 hrs on a Dash 8 - 3000 hrs TT"

It's so discouraging every time I look into the hiring pages.

Do you think flying the bush or instructing for 2 years would give me enough slack to get me in with JAZZ?

Your advice is appreciated.
