As school starts more kids will get covid, some will be serious some won’t, but rest assured the media will portray things as all kids are dying which will create further hesitancy when it comes to non essential travel. Although there have been no announcements to this effect I’d suspect they are not interviewing nearly as many as they planned at this point and are playing a wait and see game.
To add to this, everything at Alaska happens really slowly. Even if COVID was not around, our hiring process is not a quick one.. just have to be patient and update when the window opens.
