Spirit May 2019 hiring
So I am not sure if things have changed since some of the other threads that have been posted prior, but here is what I have just experienced this past week.
I applied to Spirit on May 1st and did the online assessment they emailed me. On May 5th i had gotten an email from SF stating she saw my application and wanted to setup a phone interview. I then had my phone interview on May 8th and was invited down for an interview later this month. I did have a friend who is a Spirit FO submit an online recommendation for me. This just seemed really quick to me compared to what I have been reading in other threads.
SF also told me that hiring is going to pickup BIG time by the fall and that I would most likely have at least 300 pilots under me if hired.
Sounds like there are some things in the works for future at Spirit.
I think every pilot I talk to there loves it and say QOL has been great and everyone (minus the select few) have been great to fly with.
I had about 4 years flying part 121 at a regional and have been flying the past 8 years Part 91 on a Lear.
Anyway, just wanted to clarify maybe some rumors about hiring and guys getting called vs. not getting called.

Congrats! Wish I had it that easy. Applied End of January, took assessment shortly after. Application has been under review since. Have 3 Rec's. Got a MTC email last week, and a response saying details to follow shortly. I am prepping hard for the MTC. Not sure what else I can do. 5k TTL 2k CRJ PIC.

Not trying to brag by any means at all. Just wondering why i have had a different outcome vs others. But like i said, good news is, it sounds like another big wave is coming.
Good luck with your process. It’s a good tome to be in aviation.

Theres a method to the madness Im sure, just dont know what that method is. It took me a job fair, a meet the chiefs, three attempts at the online test, and two internals to get an interview. Not bitter about it, just glad to have gotten the opportunity. If the process is easier for others Im genuinely happy to hear it.

It is odd how hiring in this industry works. I submitted my app with Spirit less than a week ago and just recently got the email for phone interview. No internals, no MTC, no job fairs. 8300 TT, 2300 TPIC. Keep trying guys and best of luck!
