Will someone explain to me how they come up with a 20% acceptance rate. Looking at the numbers provided from the above link I see:
Total recalled - 1021
Total Deferring - 812
= 1832 pilots offered a recall
Therefore, I come up with a 55.7% acceptance rate (1021/1832).
Someone help me out...

Current recall rate at about 15% (takes 100 pilots to get 15 to accept). Approx. 980 still on furlough (not offered recall). Anticipate all recalls completed by early 2012 and hiring possible thereafter.

If you notice, it says the "latest" acceptance rate, not the "total acceptance rate. When they started the recalls originally, the acceptance rate was much higher than it is today. Latest recallees have been out for nearly 9 years. Many have found greener pastures and such.

They way I read it is out of 1021 recall offers, only 209 have accepted. 209/1021=20%

latest I find... why so wound up about the recall rate anyway?
I was just curious because the numbers didn't add up to me.

That's what I thought at first, but it specifically says 1832 pilots offered a recall in the spreadsheet.

This would make sense...thanks

AA won't be needing new-hires until spring 2012 at the earliest. Barring the unforseen, I'd expect a new-hire window to be announced sometime in February or March. When that announcement happens, my bet says AA gets 10,000 apps within 14 days meeting their minimum quals. What those quals are, are anyone's guess right now.
I'd expect though (a guess) considering the market, the minimum to be 2500 hours part 121 or military, 500 PIC military or civilian jet/turboprop, bachelors preferred. Competitive requirements may easily be double that consisting of long-time regional captains, corproate/fractional pro's and experienced military vets fighter and heavy. A stray regional F/O here and there as well and a smattering of Eagle pilots (all captains with the competitive mins) to be included.
Soft requirements that are subjective and difficult to quantify are always there as well like work/driving/legal histories, interview skills and sim performance, but that we all know is in effect everywhere. I expect quite a dogfight for new-hire slots whenever that happens.
