So they interviewed for about a month this time - 4 weeks x 5 days, 20 days. 20 * 8 is 160 x 0.59 is 95 or so. Add 45 or 50 furlough bypass is 145 or 150. Even with the flows from Mesaba and Compass, that doesn't seem like it adds up to the 305 they said they would hire this year.
I don't think they start a new group every day of the week; Thursday is likely the last day of the week when they start a new group to allow for the physical and psych interview on Friday.
