What does one do if for example a major calls within a year from starting at a regional?
I don't think any regionals still have contracts for people with ATP's, or who meet all the requirements for the ATP checkride.
If they provide additional training, funding for training, or bonuses then you might have an obligation. But they should make that clear before you take the job (passenger airlines will, not necessarily other aviation employers).
