This has really thrown a kink into what I thought would be a seamless transition seeing that I have an offer to PIC a King Air 200 around for an operator who's aircraft flies every single day.
If I were you I would call them in HR and explain your situation and talk about the possibility of a CRJ class for you. They will help you.

I would also not give up a year of seniority at an airline to go to something else that isn't long term. Seniority is so so important it isn't worth giving up. I was furloughed from Eagle and shortly after I interviewed at RAH and they offered me a couple of class dates but I had the interview at SkyWest and had to wait a longer for a class date and in the mean time I needed money. so I worked delivery sprinkler supplies till my class date at SkyWest. We all need a job and money so I understand your situation. My point being SkyWest is worth the wait.
