As for FO's CRQ is filled right now and still has people that want CRQ that are already here. SBA has had some movement lately because of some internal upgrades.
NorCal (OAK/SQL/eventually SJC) & SoCal (BUR/HHR) would most likely be where new hires will end up, regardless of seat position. SBA & CRQ are pretty senior on the captain side of things.
But all of this said, the company wants to grow and take delivery of more airplanes so even though right now we are filling vacancies, the hiring should continue for the foreseeable future.

Spoke to Dan yesterday and it sounded like, even though I have SE/ME ATPS, holding a captain position in CRQ would be several months as many others are waiting for it also.

I am at 600 TT with a Lear 31 type rating plus king air time. Hoping to fly for Surf Air but have not gotten a response. Anyone know if I could drive from San Diego up to Hawthorne and turn in a resume in person? Seems like Surf would be a great flying job.

In the DAL area they use a lot of vendors. I know for a fact that some of the SIC's are not fully qualified (if qualified at all to fly the planes). They are at least not 135 qualified as an SIC and may not hold the appropriate certificates, currency or ratings for the aircraft being flown.
