Default Sent in an application Thursday, timeline?

Just this week I completed all minimums for an rATP cert. I sent in my application yesterday. I know that they have a class day starting July 30, is it possible that I interview and get that date in the next two weeks?

I've no real idea what the timeline is like for regional hiring, obviously I'm anxious to get the ball rolling.

There’s a fairly long wait for hiring off the street FO’s right now as we are short on CA’s. It appears that most classes are filled with instructor cadets and RTP guys. I believe there’s a holding pool and non cadet/RTP applicants are waiting months for a class date after interviewing.

Are you a in a cadet program? If you are not in the cadet pipeline program and do not have previous Part 121, or in the Rotor wing Transition Program, your chances negative.

If I were you I would contact an envoy recruiter directly or via email. Ask them questions they are happy to help. Anything is possible. This might not be it, coming from a Line guy in a forum.

If there is still a backlog of non pipeline, non 121 time, non army helo pilots applicants, then u are asking to skip those who have waited patiently. So it’s a slim to non chance unless you know someone who knows someone. Many applicants have CA review board already completed and are patiently waiting to get in class. Again call a recruiter.

Best of luck to you. Wait patiently if envoy is where you have to be. If not look else where:

Piedmont, Republic, Air Wisconsin, CommutAir are solid other options. They will get u in class quicker, and on your way to earning 121 SIC & 121 PIC.

Thank you guys for the responses. I guess I'll be patient and wait to hear back, maybe give them a call. Otherwise I'm waiting to hear back from a host of other regional airlines.

Like the others have said, we are staffed well on the fo side right now. I think even our cadets are looking at a six month training backlog right now.

Best of luck to you and hopefully a recruiter will reach out and give you some accurate insight.

When he says six month back log he means there is a six month wait to get a NH class. Training isn't backed up right now. Semantics I know.

A friend applied to Envoy, waited a bit, applied and interviewed at Republic and PSA, got offers from both, and starts a class at PSA next week.
No word from Envoy yet. Just a datapoint.

The more they hire the better they can staff the CRJ the sooner it will go away from here. Also sorta kidding, but not really.
