If I can't go directly to a major or lcc and it seems that I cant at the moment, then I really want to go to Envoy because Delta is my end goal. I think that's my best chance. Backup would be Edv because they are a decent company with good training and a good commute. Mesa would be next after that. Psa looks good on paper but thats about where it stops.
Republic or Skywest are good companies too but I think going to either of those two would limit my chances of getting hired into a major.

For the most part, hiring is slow but should pick up as we get farther from the holidays. If you're not in any cadet programs, it's a slight uphill battle. Hopefully our fortunes improve soon! I am coming up on 1650 hours with still nothing from anyone. Your multi time puts you way ahead of my 25... unless they feel that your time might lend to you bouncing faster than I could. No idea what their calculus is on that.
Apply everywhere, hope for the best. You can't be picky in this market. Get your ATP with someone, get some time in and then move on.

Aside from the RPA contract, why do you think those two limit your chances of going to a major? Part 121 turbine time is what they're looking for. you'll get that at those 2 airlines as much as any other regional/part 121. Did you (or anyone here) head to Sun-n-Fun this week? Just kicked off yesterday. There will be recruiter desks set up in the exhibit hangars. Curious to hear what kind of feedback they give for fresh 1500 hour candidates these days.
