I interviewed on 11/18 and got the CJO, and I was not given an option to check about the background checks, the only question asked was when are you ready to start.

Yup. Everything for me is complete. I even chose the option to wait until everything was complete before starting, class just in case.

I have heard of people not being offered the CJO at the interview, but getting one a week or two later. Did these people not quite meet the metrics or were borderline and had to be decided by the review board? Or was there some other hiccup?

Two quickies for those in the know please...
1) Has there been many newbies hired not coming from the WO pipeline?
2) Age wise, has anyone noticed anyone being hired in their 50s....
Thanks!

1. It happens, define “many”
2. The last class had 13 people over 50

I think it’s mostly paperwork but it can also be a borderline situation where further review needs to take place.

No idea really, just wondering if there's ANY folks coming over that aren't from the WO side? If they're running with 70 or 80 per class, just a rough number would be nice to know, thanks!

AA and APA haven’t published any rough numbers yet. Anecdotally, the new hire classes have had a bunch of mil backgrounds, and quite a few from other airlines, SWA in particular.

Only 31 per month, not class, from flow of WOs. Military, non-WO regional pilots, some 135/91, then maybe a select few WO outside the flow. With about 180 new hires per month in 2022 the easiest way to get to American is not at a WO Regional.

United on the other hand is scooping up every eligible WO CA that applies and gets through the Hogan…. LOL…
