Yes, the “rumor” is true! We are reopening the pilot application process the morning of Monday, April 9th. We are excited to continue the hiring process and need your help spreading the following helpful application tips:

Only online applications are accepted starting Monday, April 9th via
https://careers.alaskaair.com/Alaska-CareerOps.asp.
The requisition will be open for 5 days; closing at 11:59pm on Saturday, April 14th.

All qualified candidates currently on the requisition posted in October 2011, will receive an email notifying them of the posting window and the need to reapply.

The hiring team will review resumes once the requisition closes. We are looking for best qualified and don`t provide preference to those that applied first.

The system will accept an infinite number of applications.

The REQUIRED browser is Internet Explorer 8 or above. In order to successfully submit your application, you MUST use this browser.

The online application process takes approximately 30 minutes. Be prepared to supply 10 years of work experience plus your high school information as well as any secondary education.

A current resume is a required part of the application process. Once your application is submitted, your resume cannot be edited or deleted.

Please read each question with care and not rush through the application. This will ensure the application is processed correctly and given full consideration for an interview. Due to the selection process being highly competitive, it is critical the application has accurate information.

Please encourage your referrals to apply during the week of April 9th, not necessarily on April 9th. As witnessed last time, too many candidates applying at the same time slows down the system and causes possible inactivity.
 
Bunk, you should have chances later this year. We just got the note from the ACP's yesterday that they're hiring.

Good luck to all that apply!
 
For the old JCers who know, this is a great opportunity to work with Velo...lol

;)

This is really good news, particularly for those living west of the Mississippi.
 
You're spreading bum scoop Taylor!!

Hiring window opening April 11th, closing the 18th.
 
This was posted by an AS Captain on another forum:

I thought I'd pass along some stats from a recent class here at Alaska.

10 men, 1 woman
4 from Horizon
2 from McChord AFB
3 with Alaska regional flying. PenAir, ERA, LAB
1 brother of one of our captains
4 live in Gig Harbor
10 are married

Bottom line: All have strong ties to the Pacific Northwest. They all live around here and most got their flying experience around here or Alaska.
Looks like I should get married then go fly for QX.

For as scheissty as they were, their alumni are EVERYWHERE.
They really are. But I have to say, I think they got a lot more scheissty towards the end. It wasnt as bad when Layton was running the show.
 
Anybody get past the pre-screening? I answered "yes" to all of the questions and it wouldn't let me continue. :(
