1000 at Delta, 1000 at UAL, 600 at SWA, 500 at SWA in 2015. Keep the faith, and update, update, update. Not trying to give false hope, but we haven't had this kind of hiring in two decades. Things are moving.
But if you are still a regional FO...volunteer! ASAP. Safety. Recruiting. Do something besides check in for your trips. Most guys I know from regionals at FedEx have down something besides fly the line. Some say it shouldn't matter, but life ain't fair, and it being an good employee or pilot isn't always enough. You need to step up where you can.

Does it matter what collaterals you do at a regional besides fly the line or are certain ones weighted/ranker higher than others in terms of desirability to the majors? If so, what should aspiring new hires shoot to pickup along the way to make their resume stronger?

Head of a committee, or vice chair, etc as opposed to something that's not really leadership orientated.
And naturally, safety/CRM looks good if you can get in.

How about Union participation? Is that viewed as a good or bad thing by the hiring departments?
