Sorry, but a 6 month FO shouldn't be representing the company, and certainly not vetting resumes.
Maybe he/she was someone who wanted to do it. Maybe Spirit solicited them. Maybe they're screwing someone in Miramar. Who cares? Most line pilots I know have no interest in sitting around a job fair all day anyway.
I can't help but pick up some bitterness from you ShyGuy. You're critical of not only Spirit (the company) but ALPA/our MEC most every chance you get. It doesn't take much digging to see you work for VA- so why do you care? I personally don't lose much sleep over whatever it is you guys are up to over on the left coast.
Maybe you never heard anything because what I'm sniffing on an anonymous forum was also sniffed by a recruiting rep?
