Offers don’t indicate competitiveness. Everyone who is under the age 65, has a 1st class medical, can speak English, can legally work in the US, and is eligible for a RATP has multiple offers.

There is a certain aspect of the profile that you submitted didn’t trip their further consideration. Although, my buddy there did say they were backed up about a week in recruiting. Maybe, a little more patience is needed.

My buddy also said to not take their interview for granted. A pilot need to brush up on knowledge beforehand.

How do you know that? There wasn't even a "profile" on their application. It was just a name, previous employment history, and a summary of flight experience. Yeah, patience is probably in order, but all of the other apps I submitted were followed up with a receipt acknowledgement and shortly thereafter by with a phone call.

All regionals have something they are looking for in the summary of flight experience, particularly picky regionals. I can give you a name and number to call if you are interested. PM me.

I know pilots that were skipped over by Republic for the interview and pilots that were not hired by Republic after the interview even though they fly Beechjets in a 135 operation.

I put in an application yesterday evening and got a call today, sadly i was flying and couldn't answer, but she left a message. So I'd say that is a pretty fast turn around on application to hearing back, less than 24 hours

Yes Republic I guess you could say has a history of being run in kind of a backwards fashion. I left before the supposed “culture change” that BB initiated a while back and some are saying that at least a few things have changed. I would hope so because in my experience there it was more akin to your car breaking down on a regular basis.

XJT is operating under a 2004 contract to this day. Ouch.

The last set of negotiations after the merger took how many years before the $1.50 raise was approved?

At least you are not telling everyone that the upgrade time will drop to a year in the very near future like others were spewing a couple of years ago.
Nothing Stuff said is wrong. You are just spewing very old information!

If you haven't figured it out yet, that dude knows everything about everything. Take what he says with a grain of salt!

He had been spewing crap all over this thread that has no fact to stand behind and the stuff that he could is only half truths. He brought up the history lesson and forgot the stuff right before his history lesson began.

He was trying to bash other airlines for taking pay cuts when XJT did the very same thing by a vote.

I understand that you want to protect your airline. I would too if I only had 4 years left before I was forced to retire.
