There are a lot of openings but not necessarily at the location you may want. I had to compromise there.

Getting a little prep before the GA ride in AFW is helpful if you haven't done that type of flying in awhile. Why get to that final point and risk blowing it over a couple of hundred dollars? I didn't find anyone locally in Dallas familiar with the process to prep me. ATP said they only fly with program students now and American Flyers wasn't helpful at all. I did get an hour in my local area which helped a little.

I tried calling some of the Front Line Managers beforehand and although they were all nice, most were confused with why I was calling. None of them realized that listing is now nationwide and kept asking if I applied to their location listing or said they weren't hiring right now but told me to watch for listings for their locations, which of course no longer exist.

Thanks for all the good info on here. It definitely helped with the long and confusing process.

I was there three years and it never showed me as hired.
