specific university guys, or just a B.S.?

I meant those who come from an accredited school and qualify for this so-called frozen ATP.

Question

What's going to happen with those low time pilots that we already pass the interview and we are just waiting to be called with this new 1,000TT change?

But I mean, I was already told that I pass the interview the same day (250TT by that time). And two weeks ago I was told that I'm still in their list but now with the change, are we still in their list to be called even with less than 1k TT? That's my question now!

Doubtful, Where you go to school? If it wasnt a big aviation university then you need 1500 which wont happen in time.

I'm in a bit of pickle here. I currently have close to 600 TT and trying to decide whether I should opt for working for a regional like Silver Airways (got invited to job fair next week) or suck it up and start instructing till I get 1000-1500 TT and apply for a "better" regional like XJT/Skywest? I was thinking if I get on with GIA, I would at least get some Part 121 experience and get some turboprop time. Any good suggestions?

I interviewed over 4 weeks ago and last time I called to follow up I was told they are really backed up with the training, that I should expect to wait another 4 weeks before hearing from them.
