Our commitment in action
United Pathways
Our collection of career development and apprenticeship programs are uniquely designed to help participants pave the way toward a rewarding career in aviation including Aviate for pilots, Calibrate for technical and maintenance technicians, and Innovate for digital technologists and cybersecurity professionals.
Recruitment and hiring
We recruit top talent from aviation organizations, college and university partners and industry conferences to continue hiring the best of the best who meet our rigorous standards.
We value United States Armed Forces members and veterans and we want them on our team. We’ve established strategic career pathway programs and partnerships to create opportunities for veterans and active military personnel, including:
United Military Pilot Program (UMPP) to establish a pathway for active-duty military pilots to become United First Officers.
The Technician Pathway Program gives U.S. Army reservists and students from three maintenance schools a direct pathway to technician jobs at the airline.
Partnered with RecruitMilitary, the U.S. Army’s Partnership For Your Success (PaYS) program, VetJobs, and USO to help recruit and transition Reservists and military personnel to civilian employment.
Business Resource Groups
United’s employee-led Business Resource Groups (BRGs) drive our culture and allow employees to build a sense of belonging while creating networks with team members across United to further their professional development and personal growth. They empower employees, foster innovation and drive business outcomes. All employees are welcome to join any BRG.
