Major Airline Hiring 2020
#181
Yeah it is. This isn’t an automatic 1 for 1. So we’re just assuming these LCC’s hire their talent from regionals only? You’re under the impression that one regional pilot leaves to said legacy, one regional pilot automatically replaces his/her place at the LCC?
Respectfully disagree.

It's not a strategy because it doesn't happen.
You just tend to be more competitive when you have something non-regional on your resume. That was the trigger for the call. The HR departments don't have some sinister grand master plans about controlling pilot attrition in different airlines. They just hire the ones that seem the most qualified.

Wait until you're trained. It would probably be OK, but some people might be annoyed by that and you don't want to offend anyone involved in hiring because it usually only takes one to veto you.

Not sure that you understand what a "fed ride" is, but that is not correct. Your first leg of OE can be a Fed ride, and it is not an evaluation of you. It is an evaluation of the overall program and the training. You are not a captain until you are signed off after completion of OE and you take out the airplane with an FO.

Looking at possibly going to Women in Aviation conference- Anybody with experience able to speak to how that works to get in front of United/Delta recruiters? Do you just register for a day and then you register separately for the recruiter? And have job fairs been pulling a lot of weight these days?

Well the ngpa earlier this month produced a good amount of on the spot interviews andcjos especially with AA. As for WIA I wanted to attend for the United part but I'll be just short of their hiring mins..heard they won't talk to you unless you meet all their requirements.
