First, contingent vacancies ARE offered to the pilot group at large, they just aren't specifically posted since they come available during the AE process. Secondly, I thought I had some old AE postings saved but apparently I deleted them so going through class drops won't help me unless someone else has some old ones.

BS says many things. Unless the 330 starts picking up the 763 domestic stuff then I could see it possibly being bottom 20% being stupid junior, huge gap, then guys who don't bid it until they are safely in the international if I want it zone.
Again, will believe it when its posted in a new hire drop.

There's been vacancies last two or three bids. I think 3 new hires have gone to it in the last 18 months.
When I hired (early 18) there had been consistently 2 or more ER slots a class.
Two years later, I have less than 10 below me.
Granted, this is more vacancies than we've had, but I haven't seen them offered to new hires even though there have been unfilled slots.
I do know when I went through IQ, there was a lot of grousing from the SLIs and NSLIs about it shouldn't be a new hire plane.

As an SLI I don’t think there’s any problem with new hires coming on the fleet

I know when I did the ER as a new hire I found the training refreshingly easier than my RJ training and world wide ops was well laid out and easy to complete and do.

There were a couple straight out of military guys that needed some ET around that time but they all got on the line no problem.
The guys who said such to me thought it was tough to learn two airplanes while learning Delta procedures.
I didn't have an issue, but I spent most if my pre Delta Navy and Civil flying being multiple qualified. 60s and C12s, King Air and JetRanger, T44 and T34 etc.

Shouldn’t be an issue now that we are parking the 76Ts. Airbus will be the heavy fleet soon. Aside from a few VIP charters the 7ER will continue to wither on the vine. I think that’s why BS sees new hires in the 330.
