I've talked with a couple FO's for Horizon. They said you get the interview with Alaska but sit forever waiting for a class date as you see other pilots get a class date before you. Those pilots being from other regionals like Skywest, etc. I mean they need you to keep flying for Horizon so they'd probably rather have you wait and get the other pilots in first.
I was looking into Horizon, with that reason being a main attraction. But hearing about that and how easy it appears outside pilots getting hired, I'm looking into other regionals at this point.
