SkyWest or ExpressJet.

Showmepilot gave great advice. You'll be called for interviews at majors fairly quickly.

Envoy? Half of our new hires (which isn't much) are former military just staying current until their squadron buddies can get them a class.

SkyWest. You'll easily get ORD right off the bat with minimal reserve time.

Skywest. There are hardly any reserves in ORD. Holding a line right away makes first year pay a lot easier to stomach than sitting reserve.

So what I'm reading is Skywest or Expressjet to get a line quickly. Any idea of actual hours I can expect? What kind of actual pay? Trying to budget...
Oh, and how does parking work at ORD? I'm commuting from LIT. Any recommendations on how to park at two airports without paying?
Thanks guys!!
