To everyone that’s on the regional forums, please stop asking this. You are applying for a job and not everyone will get a call or a job offer. I know everyone thinks that everyone will get a call at every regional they apply to but there is a decent chance you won’t. I think this is the only job in world where people expect an interview simply from applying. Please for the sake of the profession and yourself stop being entitled. If you have applied to your choice regionals and not heard anything back, do some self reflecting, look over your resume and maybe you will find something wrong you can fix. If everything looks good to you, maybe they have classes filled with people that have experience that better aligns with what they want.

The shortage is here, but only a few regionals are truly feeling it. The desirable regionals are filling classes and have more than enough applicants that fit their mold, if they don’t call you 2 hours after submitting maybe you are not what they want.
