The truth is, they pull from a variety of what's referred to as "application silos", not just 2 separate piles.

I'm simply regurgitating the MEC magazine's statement. I assume it was accurate.

I have no idea but the impression the article gave me was that contact with a recruiter at a job fair helped...i.e. that those were also "knowns." I'd have to get my hands on the magazine to get the exact words. Someone left it on the flight deck. I read it and left it for the next guy to read.

No real point to this other than the staggering notion of possibly 700 hours of individual CP's time spent on M&G's.
