When I did the real interview in SLC they only did about a 5 minute HR portion because I had already done it at the job fair.

New hires can get SFO easy. Reserve time was close to a year recently but with the transition classes they're running it's going to drop dramatically. I'm guessing the new hires in IOE coming to SFO right now will spend a month or less on reserve. We're way below minimum staffing right now with 10 more people leaving from SFO alone on September 10th.
FAT is still the most junior base and will probably remain that way. SFO and FAT are probably equally as easy to get right now but seniority will move a lot faster in FAT. I spent a year as a junior lineholder in SFO not moving much. I would have been bidding 30% in FAT in that time.

Sounds like new hires can get SFO? Sounds like reserve is about a year there? Judging from the comments it looks like SFO would be easier to get than FAT for a new hire. That's great news.
Although my girlfriend really wants to move to Portland. I would not mind living there either but it sounds pretty hard to get with a longer reserve stint and less flying while on reserve. Cheaper rent though.

Rumor from a friend at OO is Chip has settled on the EMB120 rates to be applied on the E170

There's CRJ2 + BHO 700/900
And E120 + BHO 175
EMB120 +5% For the EMB170
Basically 2 BHO rates: one for Bombardier equipment, one for Embraer equipment. Keeps things simpler that way.
They realized they had to give us a little more, but the thing is so easy to fly that it shouldn't have to pay CRJ base.

Pretty much! I was expecting to get FAT but got my #1 choice (PSP). I think we had people go pretty much everywhere except PDX and SLC.
