I see they're going to have recruiters a the FAPA job fair on May 1st. Will that help get noticed and hired? Any chance of more hiring in the near future?

I didn't go to any job fairs when I was applying but I would think that meeting our HR and hiring team will help out. As far as hiring goes, it's really just a matter of when... but I don't see us hiring like gangbusters anytime soon. It's usually to replenish for the bit of attrition and FAR 117. No plans of getting new airplanes until end of 2015.

Couldn't hurt. I'd heard they were planning on hiring from one source, but on here they are saying no hiring until late fall. May as well get started now and hope your name is on their list in the fall.

2 guys at the end of the month. Probably slowing down until the ipo.

Do VX tell you if your in the newhire pool? Or does not hearing anything after the interview mean your in a pool?

You'll either get a TBNT or an offer to move on further.
