Hello all. I just finished up a masters degree in Aviation safety with aspirations of one day getting involved with air accident investigation. I decided that starting with a job in the airlines would be the simplest and safest route to my career goals.
Up until now all of my experience has been at the supervisor level in airport operations. The switch to an airline environment has me somewhat nervous.
I had a job interview with U.S. Air for a shift manager, ramp/baggage operations at one of their hub cities. While the interview went exceptionally well, I did not take an opportunity to ask some basic questions such as benefits and starting pay for the position (non-union, first level manager). I was hopeful that someone might be able to give me some insight as to what I might be getting into with this position or any other advice you might think to be valuable.
Thank you.
