They have been proactive with the hiring. Hopefully it puts us in a good position to staff the 126 acft we are supposed to end up with by 2016.
There are other shops right now that most likely offer a faster upgrade so that will probably hurt our recruiting at least a little. Especially considering that the SSP is pretty much a non factor for anyone hired right now unless they significantly increase how many they take per month.
I haven't talked to one person who came here for the "flow." Upgrades and SAP are the tickets, not the 4/month interview opportunity.
