How Many Hours are Airlines or Corporate Companies Typically Looking for in Job Applicants?
Currently airlines are in a state of hiring frenzy, and have lowered the minimums they require for you to be a prospective applicant. Generally you will begin your job search with the regional airlines, which have lower minimums than major airlines. In years past these companies have required applicants to have 1,500 hours total time and 200 hours multi-engine time. Many companies even required the applicant to pay for their airline training (generally $8,000 to $15,000). Now these same companies are expecting at the very least 1,000 hours total time and 100 hours multi-engine time, and most do not require you to pay for your training any longer. Many people are being hired with considerably less totals; however that is on a case by case basis. Corporate companies are generally looking for pilots with experiences ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 hours total time with anywhere from 100 to 300 hours multi-engine time.
