Skywest new-hires
Skywest guys/gals did you read the email from Bradford Holt today talking about hirring? There were no numbers for RJ new hires. Are we only hirring for the EMB? Or, did I miss read or missunderstand something?

Skywest is not lowering their mins, but if you are thinking of applying... then apply. We'll see you up there.

Brad mentioned in the beginning of his letter that some classes may be "short" due to the lack of qualified applicants and that SkyWest does not want to lower their minimums. So it may not be known the exact number of newhires in each class due to the difficulty of recruiting them. I think $19/hr. first year pay is going to need to come up a bit to attract applicants without lowering minimums.

Look at the spreadsheet again...
Each CRJ systems class has slots for 45 FO's. Each class will be filled first by transitions, then by new hires... they simply don't know the exact numbers of transitions vs. new hires yet. But even if the entire class is filled by transitions, they would still have to hire 45 ADDITIONAL bro FO's to replace the transitions.
My guess...expect about 30 new hires and 15 transitions for each RJ class. Unless there is significant EMB downsizing planned that we don't know about.
