Frontier Hiring.
#2991
The job description is for "Pilot" - so I'd put that in the position spot, and either put "any" or leave blank the station (probably "any" - good topic at interview!)

[QUOTE=Arty13;1922798]Flying in to start class tomorrow, and DEN closes for WX. Nice [/QUOTE
Someone blew a tire on landing and closed a runway - I'm delayed jumpseating home - it will open again soon. It's open as soon as I posted this

[QUOTE=madmax757;1922811]Well... you know that DEN only has 6 non-intersecting runways... when they lose one, the system just collapses, because you know, there are only 5 usable runways left. No self-respecting airport can operate with less than 6.

[QUOTE=DENpilot;1922815]Exactly! LGA moves twice as many airplanes with a third as many runways. And their runways intersect... DEN has to be the most conservatively run tower in the country.

Denver sucks A$$. Denver ATC thinks they doing good, but they are way beyond the rest of the country. So embarassing for local Denver pilots. I must admit, I hang my head down, and cringe when they mention our (denver) atc folks... Lame. Truely Lame.

Slowdown in Hiring = Rumor?
HR has no knowledge of this. HR says hiring will continue at the current pace for the foreseeable future. The pilot numbers I heard about were an additional 100 to 150 through this year and 400 to 500 next year. Totaling around 1500 to 1600 on the list at the end of 2016. Numerically that would call for slightly larger class sizes than current ones but there is an additional sim on the way so we don't where the training rate will ultimately stabilize. A new hire class starting every two weeks instead of one per month could change things dramatically although that is pure speculation
I also heard about the supposed slow down. The slow down talk has been coming out of departments other than HR.
I figure HR are the people most in the know when it comes to hiring. I don't see any reason for lying about the numbers on their part. We can't wait for the planes to arrive to hire pilots to fly them so an increase in the ranks before new metal arrives on property makes sense from a logistical standpoint.
