blues deville Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 ...into a job in aviation? Quebec’s Nolinor are flying potential candidates to YMX. I’m guessing it’s a recent or soon to be graduating class from Eduard Monpetite aviation maintenance college at St. Hubert. A good time to hold any kind of aircraft maintenance license. https://montrealgazette.com/business/local-business/aerospace/all-aboard-nolinor-woos-job-seekers-with-free-flights?utm_source=skies-daily-news-news-from-the-web&utm_campaign=skies-daily-news&utm_medium=email&utm_term=news-news-from-the-web&utm_content=V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wages for mechanics fresh out of school start at about $18.50 an hour, plus benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Foxtrot Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 If it takes you fifteen years to get to the top of the Wage scale, go somewhere else. Or preferably chose a different trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blues deville Posted September 6, 2019 Author Share Posted September 6, 2019 I think Nolinor is on the right track to hire people but you’ve got to “show me the money”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blues deville Posted September 10, 2019 Author Share Posted September 10, 2019 More jobs available for those qualified and even those who are not yet. It’s possible airplanes will be parked because there’s no one to sign them out. Forget about a pilot shortage. The northern operators in Canada are going to have a hard time competing for future talent. A -50c engine change near a snow bank or a nice warm hangar in major Canadian city? “For our entry level roles we provide on-the-job training that allows you to work towards a certification,” said Unen. “If you have a great attitude and are ready to learn and grow with us, we’d love to hear from you.” Full story: https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/kf-aerospace-opens-its-doors-across-canada-for-expansion-career-fairs/?utm_source=skies-daily-news-todays-news&utm_campaign=skies-daily-news&utm_medium=email&utm_term=todays-news&utm_content=V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boestar Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Aircraft maintenance has been very good to me. I.T. has been better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Foxtrot Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Fourteen or Fifteen years to the top of the pay scale? Take my advice, do something else. The right to free bargaining has been removed from aviation. Do yourself a favor and stay away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
