I can’t speak to all others but my class was 50/50 military and civilian. The civilian I believe were all 121 background (Republic, Skw, Mesa, ZW, Cmt). Maybe 1 135 person. The military were 50/50 pure military (no other experience) and the other 50% had some 121, mostly Southern/Atlas but a few had regional time. The pure military were all c-130/c-17/C-32/P-8/buisness jet. I don’t think their were any pure fighter jets in it. Very diverse backgrounds and all very experienced.

My class was a little less than 50% mil, but we all interviewed the same week so were all the same cjo timeline. Perhaps things changed and they offer spots out of cjo from the pool to diversify new hire classes, I wouldn’t think so but you never know. I was one of only two straight mil time hires, everyone else had regional time, two fractional, and had one each from AA, NK, JB, GY, K4. I’d say 1/3 of my class was Skywest. Hope that helps

Yeah maybe that is it, they try to and select enough people from various backgrounds to give the class some good diversity. Makes sense. Yesterday a guy who interviewed 5 days after me was invited into the sept. 14th class. I could still get an email today offering to put me in that same class, I am not sure. I did send an email to HR and they verified that my application is submitted correctly and that I am on the list for class when available. I guess the only thing to do now is try to be patient...

I know it changes, but generally what day or days are class date invites going out? And how far in advance of actual class date?

sometimes. The long reserve times are a detractor.

The last vacancy had approximately 25% of the base unfilled - so assuming where you get in before/after other new hire classes, the quicker you will get a line. It's a small base.
