Holding a line is a secondary, but also important consideration.
Given the amount of hiring that is scheduled to take place through April 2015 (and most likely continuing beyond,) I would guess you will be able to get into ATL on the 73N pretty quickly, if not immediately out of training. The bottom is pretty junior, and the category is going to keep getting bigger with the 900's coming online.
All the new guys coming on right now are going to be sitting pretty. Whereas most guys hired in the last 15 years have spent quite a bit of time at the bottom, you will (hopefully) have a completely different experience.
Good luck and welcome!
