Btw, what are Spirit's guidelines on Spirit pilot representatives attending a job fair? In the October 2011 job fair at FLL, there was a Spirit FO hired in April 2011. Seriously? Barely 6 months on the job, still on probation, and now he's one of the faces of recruiting? The guy seemed like a 'I made it here, now let me see if you're worthy" kinda thing. Sorry, but a 6 month FO shouldn't be representing the company, and certainly not vetting resumes.

I can't help but pick up some bitterness from you ShyGuy. You're critical of not only Spirit (the company) but ALPA/our MEC most every chance you get. It doesn't take much digging to see you work for VA- so why do you care? I personally don't lose much sleep over whatever it is you guys are up to over on the left coast.
Maybe you never heard anything because what I'm sniffing on an anonymous forum was also sniffed by a recruiting rep?

Gatorbird, I don't have anything against Spirit. Why would you think that? Spirit was on the top of my list, and I think it'd be a good place to be this year.

Probationary or not, the pilot is on property now, and I would trust they are plenty competent to man a table @ a pilot job fair, providing information on what it is like to fly here - or no less so than a HR specialist.
