If you're a low time FO with no TPIC, might be hard to get a call in the current climate, what with all the RJ drivers and NK CA's they have to pick from. But if you have 121 PIC, you have options.
Not sure if there are many but I have flown with a FO under 3500 TT with no PIC and has 2 interviews coming up. Maybe that is the exception but its slowly seeming more and more of the under 4 year FO's are getting closer to competitive. I do not think the number of those that have left reflects the number of people with applications out. If you go back to beginning of 2021 we have 617 pilots hired since then of current 1334 on property. If even half left it would start to hurt G4
Yes the payrates for G4 are correct, so yes a 10 year FO or less can make at or more money day one at SWA
