Piedmont
Skywest
Envoy
PSA
Endeavor
It really depends where this person lives for commutability, but if you're going for a flow to AA I almost wouldn't consider anyone besides Piedmont. They have by far the fastest flow, I was hired in 2015 and I'll be at AA by 2019, if I don't get hired elsewhere first. (I already had a Delta interview) people being hired now could easily only see 5 years there because of our growth rate. I could've held Captain 4 months after starting but needed the 1000 121 time as all new hires without previous 121 experience do. So I finished Captain training right at 2 years but I saw others who picked up extra flying upgrade quicker.

Most people can cross AA off their listing they don't work for a wholly owned. Flows take up a little over 50% of the new hires while the other 50%is made up of mostly military and family/higher up connections. Very few off the street hires that don't fit in the categories above are getting hired at AA.
I would put my order as;
1.Envoy (3 month upgrade)
2. PDT
3. PSA
4. Skywest
5. Endeavor
Again choose the one that gives you the best QOL, if you can live in base then that should be your first choice.
