Accuracy of the information ?
Who is in charge of the Airline Profiles section. It is out of date and contains erroneous info.
SWA "not hiring"
Alaska "plans to hire 400 in 2018"
etc
If the information is not accurate, it is not useful

What is particularly a problem is some information is accurate and some is not. Unless you already know the information, it is very difficult to know what is accurate and what is not accurate.
There are a number of inconsistencies within the information, which makes it even more aggravating,
It used to be a pretty good source of reliable information a few years ago. Not so much now.

The forum moderators do not have access to update that information (we've volunteered to do so numerous times).
The info now appears to mostly come from the airlines themselves, many of who are paying advertising customers.
You can submit an update via the link, but even I haven't had much luck with that.

Have moderators sent notes on very specific items that need to be fixed? Have you gotten results?

I think the most likely path is to have your airline's recruiters reach out and provide updates. I believe those updates now come from airlines, not pilots. You can guess how that came about.

For clarity the mods here only have access/authority for airlinepilotforums URLs.
Anything with an airlinepilotcentral URL needs to be addressed with IB via their help/contact links. It's not really helpful for us to act as middle-men, best to communicate directly.
