They should bring them to Dallas for a day, hang a badge around their neck. Do the rah rah stuff, put them on the payroll and send them home until March.
I think the 3+ month delay between offer and class is going to cost them a not insignificant number of newhires.

Thanks. If I can just log in to that virtual scheduler when there's actually a slot. My timing is always coming up with nothing available.

I feel like the time it take you to get an interview can be a little bit random, but as data points, from my interview date to class date at UA was 2 months, AA 6 weeks, SWA 5 months after virtual and about 17 weeks after in-person
