Many of the regionals/majors (AA does this) have a program where you are put into the system somewhere in flight school, then go to Envoy/PSA/Piedmont, then flow to AA, so you are essentially hired by AA while in flight school. I don't know any of the details of these programs, but they've been posted on these boards...
Namaste...
You can flow though an AA regional to AA.
But I have never heard of a flight school CFI-to-UAL flow system (or any legacy). I'm betting it's more of a preferential interview at a UAX regional....
