Talked with a reliable source who heard straight from the one who makes the decisions -- as of yesterday, no one has been notified from the last application window. They are still going through the list from the previous window.

Thanks, that does settle the nerves a little.

I did hear they received over 4,500 applications during the last window and hiring 700+ this year (or more depending on the training center capabilities).

Good luck to all!

That’s right. And there has been a bunch of hiring the last 3 years. If you look at all the threads, there were 10,000 apps with each of the majors. Suspected most of them were duplicates.

After a bunch of hiring, the apps stack reduced. Someone said it was down to 7,000. Someone else corrected them and said it was 18,000. Someone else said it was 25,000. — probably lots and lots more.

(There are 20,000 RJ Pilots, 10% lifers as a rule of thumb, and a bunch of FO not qualified yet. So I doubt the 18,000 and the 25,000 numbers of unique, qualified applicants — even considering commercial and military.)

The last ‘realistic’ rumor I have heard here was 3,000.

Anyone have relatively current number of apps on file with any of the majors?

I have a friend who applied at the Jan 2nd window closing. He received notification last week of the interview invite and is interviewing next month.

My understanding is that if your status in ICIMS is "Closed Complete", they have reviewed your info and are not receiving an invite this time around.

Keep the faith if you are still waiting! It's well worth the pursuit.

So that’s what happened to mine. I couldn’t believe I submitted an incomplete form.
I’ve probably blown any chance for this window, but, will I see anything on the pilot credentials web site if my application has been looked at?

So "Submission Received" is a good sign? Please say yes.
