For instance recruiters will tell you PSA has a 5-6 year flow, because pilots on property for that long are currently flowing. Due to growth though a current new hire is looking at closer to a decade to flow because the pilot group is so much bigger than it used to be.
So it's just learning to read between the lines and do your research on your own.
Not all of us actually tell people they will flow in 5-6 years because we all know the math isn’t there to substantiate that claim. I am a recruiter and I am pretty much up front with people about expectations like the flow- it’s an insurance policy... nothing more.. nothing less. I prefer people to make an educated decision on where they want to go based on their needs and whole picture so they don’t eventually get on here and blast the company or the “lying recruiter” that told them XYZ
There are some of us out there that actually care about their company, applicants, pilot group... you just have to find the right one.
