Good luck with that. That’s essentially a regional FO with 2500 TT and 1000 121 (turbine) who is eligible for upgrade.

Alaska is a solid Legacy, but needs to compete for applicants with Delta/United/American. All things considered equal, unless they are from the PNW, they aren’t choosing Alaska.

While those quals (2500/1000) are embarrassingly low for a legacy, this is the hiring environment we are in now. They may as well just make it 1500/ATP and be more selective in the process. Hire them and then hope you can retain them.
