I also heard Envoy thinks they have hired all the pilots they need for the rest of the year. There are a lot of FOs with around 1,000 hours now so the push for DECs is over. This means pilots are unlikely to be pushed to the back of the line when DECs apply, but some people might be waiting until the end of the year for class dates. Unless enough people get jobs somewhere else and they have to start interviewing again.

When the legacy airlines start hiring lots of pilots again, Envoy will also have to spool up training. Meanwhile they are going to keep you hanging until they need you because they know they can easily hire another pilot if necessary. Just remember it's not personal. A business mostly cares about the numbers.

Keep in mind this is rumors gleaned from the Envoy training department and my personal opinion.
