Sigh... Many of those 11K have apps in at Delta, American, FedEx, UPS, JetBlue, etc. Also how many of them are low time guys, shady backgrounds and so on that are swinging for the fences just because they meet the low hour requirements we have?
It might sound like a lot of competition now, but another year or so of everyone hiring and our recruitment team might be singing a different tune.
