I am a low time FO. Hit submit on my application to the big three last month. Along with Atlas and Frontier. I had a meet n greet at United last week and was told my application is now in the short stack now. I was invited to the AA MTC in Miami, but couldn’t attend due to work. All have internal recommendations attached to the application.

My motivation is because I don’t want to be affected by a furlough, but if enough pilots senior to be bail then I'll happily stay for a while.
