Well it isn't a perfect system. We have lots of United pilots that went to an interview, didn't get hired, got hired at CAL, are now United pilots, and are no worse or better than any other United pilot. We turn away too many qualified people IMO. Lots of my friends didn't get hired here, and I can't figure out why not. They are successful pilots at other majors.
