Some were just a few months ago at a job fair, others were well over a year ago.

AA supposedly has about 500 CJOs out there right now, plus the flows. That would equal about 1000 pilots hired in 2025, but more than that are expected. Plus, Im guessing quite a few of the 500 CJOs have already gone elsewhere or will do so soon.

No one know what the qualifications will be for new hires starting in January, and what will be preferred versus required. Apply and see what happens. Hit some job fairs or recruiting events becuase that might still help.
