You might want to move this thread to the regional forum as you will get the answers to your question from current employees such as JUICE!

If we're not hiring immediately, we will be hiring in a few months as we start to ramp up for the new aircraft deliveries that will start mid-late next year. It will probably start of with a lot of recommendations, and when we run out of those, they'll grab off the street.

In the requirements,they forgot to mention ability to accept low pay. Janitors make more than pilots, how is that possible?
