I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that less than 10 out of 100 who are called are actually showing up for an interview?

Sounds like they would rather compromise on the minimums and call back people from interviews that did not get hired - and say - we changed our mind there's a class next week than cough up a few buck$ for hotels.

The race to the bottom continues. I realize TT and experience aren't the end all be all when it comes to hiring good pilots but by lowering the mins they must really be getting desperate.

Talk to an interviewer. I can assure you it's not.

Because they hire a lot of single seat mil guys/gals. Not the case at F9. Was told the average TT for a civ new hire at UA was 6-7k TT. Meaning we're taking people with 1/3 of the experience. Again, not saying TT is the only thing that matters. I've flown with low time pilots that were great and I've flown with senior guys that had 20,000+ hours where my thought at the end of a four day was how are you still alive. My point is instead of raising pay to attract quality candidates F9 is again taking the easy way out and our work group will suffer as a result.

maybe you are not clueless

I agree with that.
We will get what we deserve and have earned. First year pay is a joke...so is second, third, fourth, etc
