Default AA OTS hiring - a crack in the W/O wall
Been reading some of the recent AA class drops and there seems to be a significant uptick in hires from other airlines to fill their classes of 60. Not sure how many are military with regional time to get recurrent, but I've seen completely non-mil ExpressJet, Compass, JetBlue.

Looks like the theories that Envoy will increase flow or AA will increase OTS hiring from Envoy are not playing out. Bigger classes just mean that more people will be on the seniority list before we reach our flow dates.

Yep, hence why I'm trying to get out anywhere possible ASAP. If you take a look at the resignations on the reserve lists, I'm not the only one.

Not real sure what you are trying to get at here. You are wrong on a couple of points at minimum. One. AA is having ZERO trouble hiring candidates that fit the culture with strong resumes. They are selecting only the best OTS resumes for review. Two. Just because there may be a stronger civilian OTS presence at the moment, means nothing in terms of what is happening at Envoy. Envoy still has a VERY strong stack of resumes JUST from guys that want to apply when they are finally accepted into the pipeline. The pipeline itself is currently full to overflowing with only the highest quality candidates selected carefully by the Envoy recruiting team. So, that being said, there are more than enough out there to increase the flow to a much higher percentage and not even notice a blip on the radar.

this is somethng ALPA should be communicating to the pilot group, unfortunately they barely send out emails now with this info. I bet the vacancy bidding guide will be sent out the day before it closes.

4 OTS hires from PSA in the next class at AA (all civilian). Several more with interviews. Have heard of a few from PDT with interviews as well. I think Envoy will start sending more to AA around the flow as well pretty soon.

This has Nothing to do with the OPs original thoughts.

Reread.

ThKooj never lets any post go by that he thinks he can drown in KoolAid and make it sound like is a reason Envoy is the greatest. Doesn’t matter if the OP has nothing to do with his statements.
