That's probably a solid (no idea if intentional or not) for prospective hires. Either the bailout is fundamentally sorted by then or the fallout has become apparent...

Why Spirit over UAL/DAL or AA? How come the people who gave you internal rec are no longer employed here and moved on?

Maybe because Spirit called and the other three didn't? It's not like we don't have apps out everywhere, but this isn't 2023 anymore. Sometimes you gotta dance with the one that brung ya. It just remains to be seen whether Spirit is going to show up or not.

I don't know if I'd quit a stable job for a class at NK right now. I guess maybe if you're young and single, and can still move back in with Mom in a pinch.

It's not like class will be this week, first classes will be in June so I reckon if Spirit is still around by then it would be with some sort of government backing and they can make a decision then. Interviewing now regardless seems like a good idea.

I feel for those 155 recently recalled pilots who are just coming back on the line now and may have just left their 91/135/regional operator to return.

This is plan C for these guys. Only ones I know looking to interview are low time CFIs who have been rejected by every regional. I wish I could have skipped right to a ULCC. NK used to have standards…very sad

Soooooo…no gouge, I guess?

The last interviews were done nearly 3 years ago.. so no recent gouge. I'd imagine the gouges on aviationinterviews would still be good though.

if i recall correctly they are very big on 'why spirit' which will be interesting in the current environment.
