Fastest way is still work for the competition at another major for fastest call, days to a couple weeks typical. Work for a LCC and it will probably be a longer wait. Work at a competing regional maybe a little longer again. Work at a supporting regional…well you may be waiting a very long time. That’s how I understand it.

Thanks for any help you can provide!
Seems to run between 60 days and never. Working for a competitor helps, professional application reviews help, meeting UAL at job fairs help.

How many more CA spots are going to be given out? That's crazy that they are still giving out CA slots in new hire class.

On the last 2 vacancy bids there have been 391 unfilled Capt slots! So, that is enough for 25 per class for about 16 weeks.

There is another vacancy bid out right now that is certain to have more unfilled, so those will be available till the end of May for New Hires. I am guessing this trend will continue so you will have Captain slots until well into the summer at least!

Next Winter/Spring there is going to be a huge need for FOs, as all these folks that are getting a Capt slot now will actually go to Captain training then, so we will need FOs to replace them. If this pace continues that will be new folks getting Captain bids that have to go to FO for a year
