The real question I have is why does it seem like people need to beg for a job here? Shouldn't we be desperately calling for interviews/class dates? It's almost like FLL doesn't want anyone to show up.

Career fairs? If you've shown interest and have the required minimums and no DUIs/felonies/revocations shouldn't you get a call ASAP?

The hell is going on?

Especially with that lucrative sign on bonus... What is it now, like $2000 signing with an additional $2000 if you have a pulse and $1000 if you're under 60 years old?

Yeah, they were hiring direct entry captains last year because many of the FOs didn't have the time requirements to upgrade. No longer the case.
