Yes the requirement could change however at this moment and the foreseeable 6+ months expect long delays for training class dates. I think they are a great company but I really don't think they have a real grasp on what there requirements are.

My frustration is the inability to at least provide a training date after being in the que for 4+ months. I could care less when my date is as long as they said your class date is "Month 2019/2020 and you are #5 on the standby list". That shows a higher level of understanding of requirements and pilots available to meet those requirements. You can draw conclusions for other things like long reserve times and the slowing of upgrade times.
So you interviewed a few months ago and still haven’t received a class date? Some of the recent Aviationinterview gouges from dec/Jan interviews showed June and July class dates, but maybe they just put that because it makes you put something.

Would they not just slow down on hiring vs hiring in excess and being very backed up on class dates? Or are they expecting alot of movement therefore a bigger demand over the next 6+ months?
