Some years a pilot may need 1000 hours of multi, other years only 200 hours are required for the same airline.

I have a feeling that's what others are frustrated about as well.

. They could have slipped an "and" or a "the" in the right spot to make a difference for all I know. Good luck everyone!

When I interviewed, they made it sound like they wanted no failures in your record. Someone that interviewed with me had a prior 121 failure and was told during the interview that more then likely they would not hire him because of said failure. He was even told that he shouldn't of even made it to the interview in the first place. Kind of weird but thats what happened and atleast they were honest with him.

Yes, 121 experience has been hired...Received a phone call yesterday! March 29th class. A few friends in class now are being put straight into ATR-72, trying to bid out of the Rock as we speak. No word on the class #'s yet nor base or equipment, all of that will be determined in class.
For those interested: worked for and furloughed from 2 different 121 carriers
2000 total, 900 multi turbine, CFII-MEI-AGI, Comm/Multi
Best of luck and to those of you waiting, hang in there, it's taking time, interviewed back in Jan.
