The next big hiring boom is YEARS away.. 2-3 at the earliest. And even then it probably wont be a boom....now in four years there will start to be a constant bunch of retirements at the majors but by that time there will be many many thousands of currently flying regional jet pilots with 3-5000 hours of time beating down their door. This will be a tough industry to break into for the next five years or so. As always there will be the occasional operator who will be hiring but the years of 10000 pilots a year being hired are gone with the wind ....at least for the foreseeable future. Good luck.
