I heard 1200 in 2016. A flight OPS memo showed 900+ thru September so that seems plausible. The interesting thing is that the percentage of pilots that were given CJO has decreased from 2014 (78%) to 2015 (74%) to 2016 (72%). Also, the number of interviews to number of pilots on property was about 68%.
So study hard.
