Looks like the company just announced that the first 175 base will be ORD.

Has there been any recent news on interviews/hiring/classes for the next couple of months?

I know that they're interviewing right now. I have two friends interviewing next week who called me asking for a gouge and recommendation. Skywest tends to be pretty secretive about their future plans so I doubt anyone who isn't in management can give an accurate prediction of how long the interviews and new hire classes will last. I do know that they have interviews scheduled for the next few weeks though.

They used to email all of us class schedules many months out. I don't think they're secretive, I think they just don't know at this point. The major airline hiring boom they were expecting hasn't happened yet.

Not since I've been here.. I think I find out more from APC, people I know interviewing, and talking to sim instructors than I do from our website.

There was a time when our VP of FO kept us updated with training schedules. These spreadsheets included dates and class sizes for each position (new hires, transitions and upgrades). Brad Holt was our VP at that time and was extremely detailed, but when Klen took over our communications started to wane. In mid-08 all training came to a stop so with it these spreadsheets, for obvious reasons. When we began hiring again in late 2010 he sent out a few emails here and there but Klen's emails were never as detailed as Brads, not even close. I believe the last email posting training classes from Klen was in 2011.
