Cape Air is hiring in HYA. Great place to start off. You start off as a 135 flight follower. Usually in about a year you get upgraded to a 121 dispatcher, dispatching ATR-42s out of Guam. Solid crew working in the SOC. Really good trainer and supervisors. Pay is around $16 an hour plus a profit sharing bonus at the end of the year. Great travel benefits and the health benefits are good as well. New aircraft (Tecnam P2012) due to start arriving next year to replace the 402's.
