PruneJuice.....hiring is determined by two groups of people at every "bigger" airline in the country . HR(people dept. etc..) and they all dislike unions or mgmt pilots, instructors etc...and all of them are ex-military or wish they were ex-military and none of them will admit to their neighbors that they are in a union. Pilot unions(by the very nature of the type of people they represent) have nowhere near the pride, professionalism or power that real trade unions have. Better advice is to go to the bottom where pic time is more readily available and fly the max....
