Appreciate the info on CJO to training timelines. A question along those lines; it seems that since the turn around is fairly quick from offer to training, for someone that doesn't have an ATP you probably should have the ATP/CTP and written done before you apply?
I have around 1750 hours with just over 300 turbine. I took a single pilot, single engine turbine job as I neared 1500 hours because all the regionals stopped hiring FOs. Not sure if that resume is competitive though, especially with the above post mentioning PlaneSense and FlexJet folks getting TBNT.

They all interview well but this place is so polar opposite to what they spend 30 plus years doing they can’t wrap their head around it.
They aren’t here for the right reasons and then the job requiring them to wipe down toilets and making sure the bright work is bright…. Well they can’t comprehend.
On paper they sound great. On the road. lol.
