What Employers Look For

The qualifications that appear most often in airline pilot jobs.

  • FAA Airline Transport Pilot certificate with current first-class medical
  • Minimum total flight hours meeting Part 121 or Part 135 requirements
  • Current type rating on the aircraft operated by the hiring carrier
  • Bachelor's degree in aviation, aeronautical science, or a related field preferred
  • CRM and crew coordination experience in a multi-crew flight environment
  • Clean background check with no felony convictions or FAA enforcement history

Tips for Your Airline Pilot Job Search

Tailor your logbook summary carefully

Hiring managers scan for total flight hours, PIC time, and turbine hours before reading anything else. Break those numbers out at the top of your resume so a recruiter can verify minimums in seconds, not after hunting through paragraphs.

List every type rating you hold

Type ratings are gate criteria for most airline postings. List each one with its full FAA designation, not just the aircraft name. A737 and B737 mean the same plane but recruiters search by exact FAA code, so use both formats if you can.

Apply early to roles that fit

Migrate Mate lists airline pilot openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.

Target postings by fleet type first

Filter openings by the specific aircraft you're rated or current on before anything else. Applying to a wide-body position without the matching type rating wastes your application and skews your pipeline toward positions that require additional transition training.

Prep for HIMS and medical before interviews

Many airline interviews include a medical records review or ask directly about your first- or second-class medical history. Know your medical status cold, have documentation ready, and be prepared to explain any deferred or special issuance history without hesitation.

Negotiate your class date, not just pay

Once you receive an offer, the class date and base assignment are often more negotiable than the pay band. Ask about upcoming class openings and available bases before accepting, since those two factors affect quality of life more than a small pay difference in year one.

Airline Pilot Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies are hiring the most airline pilots?

The companies hiring the most airline pilots right now include Trego/Dugan Aviation, Metropolis, and Flying Food, with the largest share of openings in Texas, Louisiana, and Florida, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Regional carriers and cargo operators tend to post the highest volume of first officer openings at any given time.

How many airline pilot jobs are remote?

About 29% of airline pilot openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, as the vast majority of roles require physical presence in the cockpit. Administrative functions like simulator instruction, check airman duties, and training center roles occasionally allow partial remote scheduling between sessions.

How do you become an airline pilot?

You start by earning a private pilot certificate, then build hours through instrument, commercial, and multi-engine ratings. Most airline-track pilots instruct, fly cargo, or work regional operations to accumulate the flight time required for an Airline Transport Pilot certificate. Passing ATP written and practical exams, securing a type rating, and clearing an FAA first-class medical are the final steps before a carrier can hire you.

How do you get hired as an airline pilot with little experience?

Regional carriers are the most common entry point because they hire at lower minimums than major airlines and provide the turbine and multi-crew time you need to advance. Flight instructing builds hours efficiently while keeping you current. Attending career fairs run by regional and cargo operators gives you direct access to recruiters before your logbook hits major-carrier minimums, which shortens the pipeline considerably.

What does the airline pilot interview process look like?

Most airline interviews run across one to two days and include a technical knowledge evaluation, a simulator assessment in the carrier's fleet type, and a panel interview focused on crew resource management scenarios. HR screens for background, medical, and logbook verification before the technical stages. Carriers using structured behavioral interviews will ask you to walk through specific flights where you managed a crew disagreement or an abnormal procedure.

Where can I find and apply to airline pilot jobs?

You can find and apply to airline pilot jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from carriers and operators across the United States. Search for roles that fit your ratings, flight hours, and preferred fleet type, then apply directly to each listing that matches your experience.
