I think he means he learned from his mistakes.

Off the street FOs are interviewing, but definitely no floodgate.

I applied a couple months ago and got a thanks but no thanks within like the hour. I applied again earlier this week, no response yet but at least it’s not the super quick no like last time.

I actually have a rather odd case. I was with Mesa, got through the CRJ training, but right before IOE, some serious contract violations were discovered and I got out before I took the bonus and got locked in for 2 years. So I have an ATP and all, but just no real 121 time. So I’m sure I’m at the bottom of the barrel for applicants.

I've got no prior 121 time. That's not the thing (I don't know what is).

From what I understand is that if you have an ATP they compare you with others who have an ATP, not the ones who only have a CMEL. I may be wrong.

Prior 121 time, prior 135 Tjet time, military sure.

Would you care to elaborate on that part?

Fact is - Envoy and Compass are the hardest regional seats to get right now. Things might change next year with new 175 deliveries.

Essentially the class after us was awarded bases before us. Ours was a 15th of the month class, next up was 22nd. Standing bids were awarded at the end of each month. The class starting the 22nd got their awards that month, we got ours the following month. They got all the bases we bid for (mostly dfw) and we ended up getting base locked in IAD without being notified. According to them, we were awarded a base the previous cycle...before we were even employees, even though there was never a record of us being awarded anything.

Out of curiosity, what would you do at Envoy if you got awarded ORD CRJ?
