Well I have been here for 20 years and that is what I am being told from the CPP administration.
The powers that be don’t really want to talk about it.

1. I personally know a couple XJT that had June interviews that were non new hires, first attempt.
2. They are still hiring people in the pool as long as the requirements are met.
3. Yes there have been murmurs that changes are coming which is why the second attempt Hogan’s have not gone out. United knows if most people here with seniority of 3-15 years do not get through the second attempt they will be applying other places and our already poor staffing will be much worse.
4. Staffing is the #1 leverage point we have if they want new hires to come there will have to be one or more improvements of pay, CPP improvement/ flow, QOL. Those things will come in due time to be able to keep the doors open. They didn’t give us brand new 175’s and a sim to send them to SkyWest in a year let’s be honest.

He met all of the requirements, I’m quite sure.

I'm just saying that the above scenario has happened to about 10-20 applicants without any explanation at all.

Passing on upgrades while in the CPP pool. People interviewing off the street while in the CPP pool and then getting rejected and getting the CPP offer pulled. United has a right to be picky.
