Met with them on Friday morning, had a much better experience than at NGPA. Much more organized and got some more face time too.
Nothing really new to report. They wanted to make sure that you've done your profile on Smart Recruiters, that you're actively volunteering, taking on more responsibilities at your current place of employment and attending the meet and greets. That's really about it.
It sounds like they're looking to hire around 8/mo for the rest of the year starting sometime next month (60-70 new pilots). The pool is around 80-90 right now, but slowly draining as people bail out, so they might hire a little more, but not much. They're adding something like 15 new planes next year, so they were a little more optimistic that the hiring number will go up then (probably double).
Until then, hurry up and wait.
