The big 3 are looking to hire 1,000 plus each next year, not to mention LCCs and ULCCs.
Doesn't quite work that way. Folks getting hired have to meet AA standards and from there only the most qualified are selected. Not to worry. The line to get in for pipeline guys is long and only getting longer. No shortage of applicants. Just have to hire AA pilots.

Now I’m wondering how I got hired. Must have slipped through the cracks LOL

It is very competitive and unfortunately there is a long waiting list. 2020 is going to be incredible. It’s truly the best time ever at Envoy. This isn’t your Dad’s “American Eagle.” This is Envoy which far and away blows away anything of that former shell. Where else can you hire on to a major airline as a pipeline candidate? Nowhere is the answer. That’s why the qualifications and interview are so tough.
Fun fact, the flow shrinks by 9 per month in two weeks and after the L10-11’s are gone will be based on a ratio which given the current staffing numbers will never get above 21 per month. So please tell me again how you and your fellow Kool-Aide drinkers are going to sell the flow to aspiring cadets. So your Shelby Cobra is about to be downgraded to a Escort LX wagon.

The one thing that is humming like a Shelby Cobra is outside attrition, especially in the more senior group of pilots. Something that hasn't been happening until now.
Another 2 sub-900 numbers left their notice a few days ago.

20/mo flow is unacceptable. Gotta pump those numbers up.

But the company keeps promoting sub six year flow for new hires.

We lose about 40-55 people per month right now so that’ll prolly drop to what, 30-45? That’s what I’m thinking since the flow is going from 29 to 20.
