Hi
Anyone who recently went through the interview process could chime me in regarding what to expect.
What kind of tech questions to review and what type of hr questions are asked?
Thanks

Question,
Im an Australian who easily meets the requirements bar the right to live and work in the US. Im assuming its a longshot, but would ATLAS ever sponsor a successful pilot to obtain a VISA to work in the US. I used to work at Syd airport and speak to ATLAS crews all the time and the flying the guys would do seemed appealing. Plus a nice change to what i have been doing?
Cheers

airbus guy going home! i hope...
Been in the ME for last 4 years flying a330/#340. Have a interview coming up with Atlas. Any recommendations as to what the focus is on the test/interview? not looking for answers but need to know direction to review.
Also if anyone can responde, what type of schedule/pay can i look at if on the B767 vs B747.
i am a former Ca, now flying as an FO with +12000 total time.
Just tired of being away from the Land of the Free.
Thank you in advance for your responses and input.

There's a thread on Airline Pilot Central about the interviews.
Some of the the 767 flying is domestic night hub turns for DHL out of CVG. Some is international PAX.
First year guarantee is 50 hours a month at $75.75 for both planes. But there's a rig that pays an hour's pay for every 4.95 hours away from base. So unless you get stuck sitting reserve in base you'll beat guarantee after 10 days. Second year and beyond the guarantee is 62 hours a month so it takes 13 days on the road to better it. Second year -400 is ~90 an hour and the 76 pays 92% of -400 pay.

Atlas is hiring now...
Minimums are:
2000 Total Time
500 Turbine Total (no PIC required)
a few pilots have been hired with no turbine PIC. Most hired are US regional captains, military, and corporate pilots...most with jet PIC.

ATLAS ONLINE TEST and INTERVIEW
Does anybody have any recent information on the Atlas interview format?
Has anyone taken the online test recently that could offer some insight?
Is the interview the same as it was in the past?
There seems to be a lack of RECENT gouge information on Atlas.
Any help would be appreciated!

Rumor at the breakfast table yesterday was that they're done hiring for the year. Other rumor is that they're running 12% short on FO's...
Reality is that with the seat locks expiring for the initial 767 cadre, any new base bid will trigger a heavy migration to the 747, and they can't afford that during the 4th quarter rush. So unless they want to beef up the 767 fleet, they may well try to hold off 'til January...

Last I heard they are hiring as many pilots for the 767 as they can train thru the end of the year. Max pilot hiring just like DAL and UAL. Nobody has enough pilots.
