The details are all pretty hush-hush (i.e., not even the pilot group really has details). It'll have to be a hell of a lot better than it is now for us to ratify a TA, though.

What exactly does "higher set of internationally-recognized standards mean"?

I dropped my script to 350 because about 80% of the ads are bull$hit. I know someone who pretended to be an employer on 350 and he got about 200 responses within 48 hours and no one from 350 ever called to verify any of the information. I believe they are connected to Aeroservices in MIA that advertises for job fairs and when you get there most of the airlines advertised are not in attendance, JMHO.

I interviewed last week. They were fussing that their mailboxes had hundreds of e-mails because someone who was not them had put up an ad on 350.

Yeah, they offered me a slot. Swimmin' in th' pool, now.

They said they were backed up due to a lack of check airmen for IOE and that we could expect a call in 3-4 months.

WOW! That's quite the wait. I wonder why they are even interviewing with wait periods that long. I would imagine a lot of things could change with a candidate in that time period.

How many did they tell you were in the pool ahead of you?
