I'm not entirely sure, but I think Piedmont still may have a shortage of first officers. At least it looks that way looking on some of the base staffing lists. People have been saying that they may have postponed the August class because of the huge backlog of trainees stuck in training. They've been falling steadily behind since this hiring rush began and I think most classes are looking at almost a month or maybe more between ground school and sim training. However, since they finally raised the hiring mins from a heartbeat and a commercial multi certificate to 500/50, I guess they are starting to slow down...

I'm pretty sure SkyWest is still accepting resumes. There was a rumor of a jet class in June, but that would most likely go to Brasilia FOs. So you're looking at a Brasilia class if you're hired. The mins are 1000/100 OR 800TT & 200 in an RJ

skywest is actually going to be running interviews every weekday in june. not sure what it's for, but we're sure going to be interviewing a lot of people. now's a good time to get resumes in, i'd say. one would assume (sometimes a bad idea) that if we're interviewing a lot of people, we'll be hiring a lot of people. minimums were already posted here.

ASA is hiring into a pool. I think minimums are 1000/50. I've been told when they take people out of the pool to put them in class (don't think it's happened yet) they take the most experienced people first, and not whoever interviewed first. Not sure if this is how all pools work, but there you go.
