Q & A

Jobs

1. How does the job market look?

By looking at our home page "Updates" button at the top, you'll notice that a high number of jobs (approx. 1200+ within U.S. airlines) have opened up in the past 62 months. Although the economy has affected major airlines and smaller airlines as well, our graduates are finding employment among the many stronger regional and commuter airlines. Whether the hiring is at it's peak, is on a slow recovery, or slows down, Sheffield School will assist you as we have always assisted our students and graduates for the past 61 years. We are devoted to our students and graduates.

(Nearly half a dozen schools have recently ceased operations - some in the middle of class with no refund. With regard to lifetime technical support and recurrent training from their school, there is none. If and when you decide to join us, we will be here.) est. 1948.

2. Is it true that many graduates from certain schools lose their jobs quickly?

In addition to many individual cases, there have been cases in which an airline will hire a group of graduates from a nearby school; however, most ended up failing their initial airline training and thus, lost their jobs. Sheffield not only wants you to find a job, but keep it. To do this, we provide a comprehensive course that is unparalleled in this industry.

In late 2006, one couple who both graduated from a "quickie" school called Sheffield for flight planning advice since that area seemed to give them problems when interviewing for jobs and their test prep "school" did not adequately instruct them. They regretted not attending Sheffield School.

3. Has Sheffield helped graduates of other schools find employment?

Yes, but only after they graduated from our school. We have had numerous graduates from other schools attend our course after suffering through difficult times during airline training. You can find a few examples within our testimonials as well as in conversations with airline industry personnel.
