Q or EJet?
Got a friend who received offer mid- December, selected ERJ, initially told “Summer” and then weeks ago “May”, nothing recently.

They told me to “expect” these training dates. Nobody in my group has one yet. Close friend was hired in October, got a call for the Q, is waiting for the E and still no date.
I agree, my confidence would be stronger if I just had a date. I don’t expect it tomorrow but planning on a quarter of the year for a life transition isn’t really giving me the warm and fuzzy when it’s the next quarter...

Friend holding a CJO from late 2018 got an email in Jan saying “we will give you 60 days’ notice, expect to hear by summer” and nothing since.
I wonder how many in the pool are taking other offers ... and if/how that will affect their planning? With other companies offering immediate starts, could the pool dry up?

I am in the same boat as your friend and received the same email in January. I too have been hoping the pool would dry up thus bumping myself to a sooner date. I know of the 3 others that received a CJO at the same I did, two took offers for a sooner training date at SW.

So they are working through the pool and it was pretty consistent with what the told us in the interview. They estimated mid March when we got the CJO for the E.
Most of our group ended up taking the Q for earlier dates and I could have taken the Q back in Nov as well, but due to extenuating circumstances had wanted to wait for the E. Only one in our group ended up going elsewhere.

Nice Dash3t, thanks for the heads up.
I interviewed end of Nov, so hopefully one of those calls comes this way within the next month. When I interviewed they said end of March for the Q and June-ish for the E175. However, the email in January 'projected' end of May for both aircraft. I'm not sure which aircraft I am slotted for at this point but I'm good with either.

Sounds like I'm in the same boat as you guys, although unfortunately for me I interviewed quite a bit later. I check this thread occasionally and appreciate the updates you guys are posting, so thanks for that! They gave us the email and phone number of a specific person and said we were welcome to reach out to them if we wanted an update - anyone try that? Too soon for me to be looking for an update but am curious if they told you guys the same?

This is almost exactly what my friend was also told, with a person to call with questions. His email said “no sooner than” end of May, so he’s continuing to build time and pay the rent in the interim.
I wonder how many of these “stockpiled” pool swimmers have multiple offers? Presumably the companies have an attrition factor and assume they’ll lose some...otherwise they could be caught short.
