Why Frontier? (while not saying Airplanes or Bases)
In short, I am looking for new challenges in life and pursue my lifelong dream of being an airline pilot.
You can probably see from my resume that I am not a job hopper. I am at a point in my life where I am looking for a so called “forever job” and stability.
Frontier has been around for quite some time, and I think the Ultra Low-Cost Carrier model should allow the airline to do well even during difficult economic conditions.
Quality of life is also important to me. I would like to live-in base and I like where crew bases are located.
Longer routes and day trips
Last but not least, Frontier has been my airline of choice as a passenger for spontaneous trips, where I can get great last minute deals on tickets. It has always been a pleasant experience with upbeat flight crews who seemed to love their job.
Why should we hire you?
I am a safe pilot, not a risk taker, with many years of accident and incident free flying experience.
I fully understand that with the role of a pilot, comes a lot of responsibility, and the experiences I have gained in life so far, along with my strong work ethics and professionalism, make me a great candidate for this position.
