I would have to dig through emails but I believe the process from applying to knowing I passed the interview process was around 6-8 weeks and applying to class date was somewhere around 4 months.

We advertise on multiple sites including the company page. Being in Atlanta can be advantageous. We occasionally do remote interviews and college tours. If I were you, just go to our webpage and fire off an email to HR. I'm not sure if we're hiring at the moment but I'd imagine they'll at least accept your resume and put it in line for future interviews. We're hiring a lot this year... 8 classes of 12 for the year and I believe that classes are filled up for a while. People do later decide to cancel their class spot and HR bumps people up, opening up more spots.

You choose your own base. There are no limits to the number of pilots per base. Bases are mostly airline gateways for remote pilots to use on day 1 & 8.

As DSM said, many times day 1 & 8 for remote based guys are travel days. There are times where you'll pick up a plane from PDK, grab a rental car from Epps and drive to the plane or you'll park at Epps and then Taxi/Uber/Lyft/MARTA to ATL to get on an airline flight.

I'm still pretty new and after 4 cycles, I have not began, ended or had a stop over at PDK. Last cycle I did the rental thing and drove to Chattanooga but that's as close as I've gotten to starting here.
