just got an email from eagle sayin i didnt meet there minimums, and i am short the multi just wondering do i have to wait the 90 days to re-apply even if i have reached the minimums
Finish your multi time, and then continue applying. Keep verifying your information.

Before I got hired I had my application for one year and I never received a "don't meet the requirement" letter, even when I was low on multi.

So there might be something wrong in your application other than the flight time. Keep looking for errors.

There is a standard. If you don't have the current mins, you don't get an interview.

While still a long while a way and a lot can change, what factors influence choose equipment if a base you desire has multiple. For instance, if one base (not sure if this exists) has all 3 birds and you have no personal preference over the machine, what else do you consider? ORD has both CRJ and ERJ and if given the choice, I don't know what would make me choose one over the other.
Go with the EMJ if you want more flexibility + reserve time seems to be less than the CRJ.

Go to the CRJ if you want a bigger airplane.

Go with the ATR if you want QOL and will get for sure a line faster than the EMJ and CRJ.

No, there really isn't any standard. They will bend the mins when they want. When I was hired mins where 1000/100. I had 650/350 with some minimal previous 121 time.

Edit: I went to a job fair and talked with the hiring folks. That's how I got the interview.

The "mins" are never a hard floor.

Any idea when the new mins will be announced? Also is it true that the interview is a two day process?

1) I don't know personally what the 'new mins' will be, someone else might.
2) Interview is a 1 day process but most people have to fly in to DFW the night before; but the actual interview (H.R, Tech & Sim) is a one day affair. You'll probably know you made it or not by 2-3pm.

After you are given the green light on the day you will receive a pre-conditional offer of employment which means you are being considered PENDING your PRIA and other background checks.

Make sure you declare all check fails and DUIs the WILL find out. I had two FAA and one 141 stage fail....no problem (+ a bunch of 135 check rides and all checks since these training hiccups are passes). Just be honest and tell them what you discovered about yourself when you failed.

After 2-3-4 weeks you will get a call from Hiring Manager saying "congrats" and off you got to do your medical (2 pee tests, 1 hearing test). After this you are all good to join a ground school, which start every 2 weeks.

1) Hiring interview ( 1 day)
2) Background checks
3) Medical exam

I did a bunch of 121/135 interviews and Eagle was BY FAR the most professional, organized, polite and open group of people. Very pleasant experience IF YOU STUDY. Read the gauges they are 110% accurate.

If you get the interview then the job is yours to give away. Don't be dumb - study!

Yes that's the process.
I my case I went to the review board and they said everything was good but I needed to get 50 more hours of flight time or take a 10 hour instrument refresher on a crf at ATP. I opted for the latter because it will help alot with the sim ride. I didn't have alot of recent flight time so if you're coming back after a layoff of some sort, expect this.
