Thanks, I am just getting back into the "needing" a job phase. I haven't had the energy to read the whole 350 page thread yet. I'm dreading it actually. These boards are not for me. I wouldn't even know how to use the search function to fish out what I need. So thank you. I think you summarized it nicely.

My understanding is there will be, more or less, indefinite hiring for the next +/- 9yrs provided all the aircraft on order come to fruition.
So ~100 jets = lots of interviewing/ hiring. If there is a break in hiring, it should pick up again shortly. I know a new hire class started last week and there's at least another one starting on Mar. 12th. Beyond that, I'm not sure....but again, go back to the first sentence and make your own assumptions.

I honestly don't recall. My apologies.
Thanks. I submitted the big application back on the 7th. My contact told me the HR lady was on vacation last week, so I was just curious if anyone knew if more calls had been made recently. I appreciate the info.

Patience is the name of the game at Spirit, for us on this side of the fence and for the ones trying to get in.
NK doesn't exactly operate like a well oiled machine or like everyone expects, there is no back up for back up, you just roll with the punches and adapt, a lot.
Good luck.
