Compass isn't going to take many from the pool (if any). Delta says no hiring till late 2013 so stagnation will persist at cp

As of right now, we are adequately staffed for the summer of 2013. This means that unless Network decides to significantly increase our summer flying, we’re not planning on hiring until late 2013 to ramp up for flying in 2014. However, if past experience holds true, it’s unlikely that all pilots slated to retire over the next 10 years will choose to fly until age 65. Therefore, Crew Resources and Scheduling will closely monitor our staffing levels on a monthly basis to ensure we stay ahead of the retirement wave and don’t find ourselves short-staffed.
Crew Resources still hasn't received the block hour plan from marketing, and that's a huge part of the hiring equation.

Delta weekly update from Director of Flight Ops said no hiring until late 2013 at the earliest. Hopefully some more CZ/XJ pilots can start flowing up in 2014.

In a span of a few months we went from hearing that we were flowing 100 of our most senior guys beginning in Jan 2013 to now perhaps nothing until 2014. It's frustrating but it helps to keep things in perspective, we at least have a job to go to. Best of luck to all.

You get the job? Or are you in a pool?

I updated my airlineapps last week, and got left a voice mail today about an interview. Will have to say sorry for now, but try and leave it open ended. If things start going out of control at Eagle, Compass would most likely be my first choice. Seems to have a bunch of potential.

How senior are you?
If the answer is "not very," RUN! (or at least go to the interview)
