Has it been stated how many they plan to take per hiring cycle when candidates start reaching minimums?

 

Priority is to take most NH out of Aviate. The problem is the staffing at the said regionals. 40-70 guys are transitioning a month, new amended agreement says United is supposed to offer dates within 60-90days of reaching requirements

I’m not sure anybody realized that with everyone hiring regional CAs there would soon not be enough CAs or upgrade eligible FOs to staff the regional.

It will be an interesting summer.

 

Thanks if there are 20 openings per month and 20 Aviate people are ready to move to United they would get priority? I’m nowhere close ti even being at a regional and not even in Aviate, but curious how this will compare to AA WO flow.

 

That’s the goal yes

Historically, one of the variables associated with “ab initio” programs is that flow through can be limited when your services are needed at a lower level. Many of us were hired and given hire dates that were later adjusted by retirement calculations and seniority list arbitrator’s because we were “neeeded” in the regional ranks…
Hopefully history will not repeat itself.

 

Sounds as if lucky enough to get accepted Into Aviate then it’s a lot faster path than through a AA WO for a right seat at a major, but then again who knows.

 

Historically it’s been like that guys are hitting requirements and Coming over it’s great

Thanks for the answers. I hope I get a chance to interview for Aviate after getting my instrument as United truly does seem like a great place to be.

 

Well unless you a minority or a woman I wouldn't bother...just read the most racist flight opps update of my life. 80% are minority and women right now in training...united has only 6% black pilots and about the same representation of women...I believe American population is only 11% black so 6% is a bit low but not that crazy. If someone doesn't sue the company over this I'll be amazed ​​​​​​​Actually just looked at the population numbers there's 250 million whites and 44 million blacks in America so doing the math I would say we are very well represented by all races, colors and creeds... ​​​​​​​Women are under represented but then again you can't ba a pilot if you don't apply... I think the numbers are very low that don't get hired so their numbers probably represent Women in aviation pretty well. I know my daughter has no interest in aviation. ​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Maybe because it's black history month they think it's appropriate to discriminate against the most qualified regardless of race because what I read was a disgrace to all humans that achieve the status to even apply at a major. This only encourages animosity towards one group or the other...humans are ruthless and will always be regardless of any CORE policies. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I say let the best man or woman win there shouldn't even be a name on a job application anymore you should be chosen by your accomplishments not color of skin or gender...the company shouldn't even have any inclination of who's showing up till they meet in person...​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​with that said congratulations to the ones that did make it...​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
