I work as a CFI at a Portland based flight school and QXE uses our sim for thier interviews. Several of my friends and fellow CFIs have gotten on with them. The word on hiring is that they are going to slow over the summer to give their training dept time to transition the 200 crews to the Q4. Sept is what I have heard for resuming interviews.

That said if you meet their mins I would get your app in and keep it updated.

Cheers

apply now

If Horizon is were you really want to work then apply. You have to want to live in the northwest and not want a quick stepping stone but a quality place to work. If you quick upgrade and the desire to fly jets go to Mesa, they will sell you the job instead of you selling yourself for the job.
It's gonna be a fun summer, we are currently short in the 200 for captains and f/o's. They are offering leaves in the 400 because of delayed orders. But there is alot of movement and there will difinately be some hiring.
