75-80 hours credit generally comes with 15-18 days off. 80-90 hours credit means 13-15 days off. 90+ entails 12 days off.

Does long sits between flights mean long overnights, or sitting around the airport for 3-4 hours before your next leg?

Its true I was an FO in pre-COVID times and the trips have gotten worse, but with 12 months seniority I used to get 85 hours/month with 15-17 days off

Junior CA award for November is a 9/18 hire. Very likely 10/18 for December. Factor in no hiring for 15 months and the upgrade time is sitting at roughly 18 months.

After the phone interview there’s some candidates that were told on the spot when to come to Indy for a face to face interview and other candidates we’re told they’ll hear back in a few days for the next step, why is that?

Multi Time has been discussed previously in this forum and how much is needed for indoc at Republic. I've heard 25, 44, and 50. Has this ever been clarified?

The bottom line is whatever ME time you can fenagle out of them (40, 45, ???), you will be fine once you show up with that number. Keep the email records to show incase somebody questions you when you arrive at INDOC.
