UAL Hiring Update
As promised, here's what they told us in IAH this morning during Day 1 indoc.
The number of UAL furloughees taking the CAL offer is waning. They still have a couple slots in Feb, 20 or so in March, and just opened up April classes. He (CV) and HR will be at the job fair in Miami this weekend (reiterated that face time is important). There ARE interviews (non-poolie) lined up for very select groups coming soon. Did not mention numbers. Any hiring will stop as SLI approaches (late Spring).
My impression is expect very little hiring this Spring, full recall process starts up immediately after SLI then full hiring thereafter. So far almost 400 have taken the CAL option so that only leaves around 1000. I'd wager that not many more will come back after SLI based upon historical trends and the fact that they still have 7+ years to bypass. Soooooo, maybe "normal" hiring later this year???? Just my guess.
Thats all I know, hope it helps.

Did I just say "sense" in regards to this management team?
