SkyWest Careers

Training
A home study packet for the successful interviewee will be given to each new hire to be completed by the first day of formal training in St. George. This includes current SkyWest city codes and hub maps.

All training is conducted at SkyWest Airlines Headquarters in St. George Utah. Formal classroom training or Initial New Hire is 124 hrs, after which a designated trainer will conduct practical training until such a time that the new hire is deemed ready for a Competency Check. This training normally lasts from 3 to 5 months depending on the new hire.

The Competency Check is conducted by either the Manager of Dispatch Standards or the Chief Instructor who are Air Transportation Supervisors. The successful ‘Comp Check’ will then complete a required Aircraft Familiarization or ‘jumpseat’ time of five hours which will complete the certification process.

All written tests require an eighty percent (80%) or better. All oral testing requires one hundred percent (100%).

Pay
Pay will begin on the first day of class. Base pay starts at $13.50 per hr. At six months it goes to $14.05 and $14.83 at one year.

Vacation and personal use days are accrued according to hours worked. We also have six paid holidays.

In addition to your pay you will also receive the quarterly bonus once you have been employed for two years.

You will receive a yearly raise on your anniversary date and a cost of living raise, which is re-evaluated yearly.

Accomodations
All Accomodations will be the new hires responsibility and at their own expense.

Travel
A space available round-trip ticket will be provided on (SkyWest operated flight only) from the airport nearest your home to St. George, Utah to interview. The applicant may also provide for their own travel needs.

Once employed there are numerous travel benefits available. See the Travel section in the Careers - Benefits summary area on the home page.
