Hey everybody! I'm new to this site but I see it is quite active and I've enjoyed reading many of the posts over the past few days so I thought I'd chime in with a question.

I meet all of Republic Airways minimums for the E-170 (1570 TT, 1380 MEL w/1350 of that Part 121). I sent my application in 9 days ago and haven't received a phone call yet. Is it common for regional carriers to wait weeks, maybe even months, for the phone call or is 9 days or so average? I'm starting to get nervous. I've read posts on here that say Republic is short on pilots and could be hiring quite a few. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
