Search is your friend. If you have a family to feed, you might want to recheck the pay scales, and your life will belong to the company. Not to be snarky, you need to do some research before you apply.
If you can't essentially live in a hotel for 3-4 weeks without your family, and make starvation wages work, your tenure will be short. The upside is, if your wife doesn't work and you have 2 or more kids welfare and subsidized housing is an option for the first year.

Quote: Thanks DHood. Since you're up, let's keep rolling. ORD CRJ700. I will have to commute from an airport with SKW service NS to ORD out of Arkansas. ORD fairly junior on the 700? Also, I keep hearing that they are hiring lots of folks. From what you have seen, how is the quality of newhire pilots? I was offered a class at Mesa over the phone, so I told them no thanks because I was concerned that they are just hiring anyone, and I don't want to be part of something like that. Do they still do full interviews at Skywest or is the lack of pilots becoming such a problem that anyone with a pulse gets a shot? Thanks for your time.
Skywest is hiring pretty much anyone who applies also. Training is now the final say as to who goes and who stays. They just rehired a pilot who washed out of training at a major carrier. That's desperation for you.

How many regionals aren't desperate? Serious question.

Exactly. When you publish airlineapps it's just a matter of time before each one calls that day. I think Mesa is still hiring guys over the phone with no face to face.
