I was told in the interview that it’s republics policy to not use any sim time during training towards your atp, so that you can take the oral right after systems. So if you come in with some sim time (ctp) that’ll count.

That’s not their decision to make. Federal law is exactly that, Federal law.

Then Republic is gonna get killed in the recruiting race, because making a new hire pay for flight time (especially ME flight time) they can legally credit for in the sim is an for the new hire that no other regional is requiring. But Republic also thinks it’s a good idea to get in the 141 flight school business. Good luck with that.

They require 44 hours multi (unless coming from 141, then 25 is sufficient). Still seems like they get plenty of people through the doors. That's what a great contract does to you.
