Upgrades were supposed to take June, July, August off but now that has changed due to the FO situation and training staffing. I ran into an IOE Captain last week that had been waiting 3 months for OE.

If more airplanes come then upgrade time will decrease. If they don't then you are looking at a year or two for upgrade, depending on how long FOs hired in 2012 take to reach upgrade time.
Lot's of activity to suggest management is still dangling the carrot, and BSing.

Anyone had any luck scheduling an interview lately?
I got an email to call ( leave a message ) to schedule an interview , called few times and left a message and nothin yet, been 3 weeks now and heard nothing
They cant be hurt for pilots, or something wrong here?

Any thoughts on this?
Thanks

Is this a company quirk? Why are they doing this if they need pilots? I was told to interview with 1300TT

This isn't a company quirk, it's your introduction to regional airlines...they'll get back to you, if and when they find time...If hired with any company remember, you're a number, they see hundreds of applications, accept upwards of 50 pilots a month, and have hired thousands upon thousands of workers over the course of the previous 30 years...you are, as a result, insignificant.

Recruiting is as ridiculously understaffed as the rest of the airline. There's literally ONE person doing all the calls/emails/etc. Don't be offended if it takes a while, and don't worry about annoying them by being persistent.

I laughed when I read this. So sad, but so very true...

Lots of rumors, nothing new. Chicago base opening in July, initially 10 lines and 3 aircraft, will grow to 8 aircraft and 40-50 lines by October.
