as is it worth to get a rating for a Cadet??
As for the A320 operators, I am not aware of any E3 holders getting a shot at anything above the regional level in the US. There are jobs, but all prefer 121 time from within the US. So in the future once E3's try to break into the next level? Possibly. I won't say it's impossible, as people once told me that when I was applying to regionals, and here we are.
Aus_Phenom109, awesome to see. Credit where credit is due. Skywest' HR has got this thing down pat. The good thing is that they have all gone thru specific training and understand the E3. Skywest does have a great name and reputation. They tend to be proactive in their approach, hence being the first airline here with an E3 visa stream/pathway.
Congrats on the new job! Are you on the CRJ or ERJ fleet? Ground school is fast paced compared to what we are use but home, but the instructors hold extra classes if needed. I recommend getting into a study group with say two or three others. You can kind of lean on each other for help and allocate sections of the homework to complete and then get together to share and educate others in your group on the homework sections you competed. This is encouraged and you will be briefed about this method of study once you start ground school. It's an exciting road ahead! I'm sure you will love it! I've found it to be rewarding both financially and personally.
Welcome to the US skies!
