Short answer: Nope.
Long answer: If you are the nephew of a system chief pilot, have a very solid background, a spotless record, and photos of the CEO with a goat you might be able to squeak through. Otherwise, this the is the front side of the hiring wave and UAL has thousands of applications with the same, or better qualifications, and the 4-year degree box checked. UAL can be very selective at this point.

Which one?
The one with folks that have been offered a job but have not been assigned a class is very shallow. With the small acceptance to recall numbers I suspect that there will be some very short notice class date offers to keep the training pipeline full.
The one with all the applications on file hoping for an interview is getting deeper by the minute.

Has anyone heard of just your average regional captain with a few internal recs, a 4 year degree and +/-2,000 hours of PIC getting the call yet? All I've heard so far seems like they're still calling the LCA's, mil IP's and former interns.
Also, a few pages back, they were talking about a CP whose LOR could be the "kiss of death" but no one would name names. Could someone at least post his initials?
