Granted, NOT a full on actual interview. But a face to face and just review/update personal info to make sure nothing changed, you didn't turn into an ax murderer or have anything criminal/disqualifying added to your record, training failures/dings, etc.
Again, dated info.

I was a December interview who appeared headed for a March class. That could leave poolies from Dec/Jan/Feb.
They were interviewing as many as 100 people a week at most, though not always. Things sure did change quickly.

I don’t want to start a red vs blue debate, but could bills passed by the current regime lead to increased hiring at United and the reduction of the regionals? Potential environmental regulations, the push to be “green”, and tax credits/penalties could increase operating cost and make the smaller planes even less efficient. We still have a bunch of aircraft on order and we didn’t retire any of our fleet. Will we use that lift to take back flying and increase the need to hire, or will we just go back to the same UAL/UAX fleet mix that we had and hire again when attrition becomes an issue?
