I just got home from work and found a nice little surprise, an email from recruitment. They were already closed for the day by the time I got it, but I’m excited to talk to them tomorrow after a nice little wait. Anyone else get contacted recently?

Think they’ve changed their MO to start a dialogue via email versus a screening call?

Well it was good to finally get in touch with someone, and about what I expected. Around 10 minutes, typical screening where they reviewed my app and ratings and whatnot. Hiring into a pool, and allegedly still don’t know when exactly FO classes are going to be offered. He offered me an interview, and I chose one in mid December since it gives me time to prepare and will be held here in Phoenix. He said classes, when they resume, will be about 8 per class (but I can’t recall if he said it would be once or twice a month, probably varies based on demand?). Fingers crossed it goes well, the captains all get through training, and they wake up and rememebr they need to hire more FOs soon haha.

That being said, I doubt that anyone really learned from the experience so, yeah, everybody will likely get behind the power curve again at least a few more times....

In fairness, the disastrous shortage of E-175 sims and instructors last summer wasn't just at Compass, it was dang near universal. The surge in hiring by the majors and resulting attrition and need for the regional's to crank newbie's through at a hitherto unseen pace sort of caught everyone with their pants down.

Congrats on the call!!! Glad to hear they’re hiring!!!!! Just about to finish off my training here. The delays haven’t been too bad. Took the family to Asia for a week while getting paid so no complaints there. My training footprint will be about 110 days. You’ll enjoy it here!
