I wanted to ask the recruiters and managment people on here what they think about compensating qualified applicants (like type rated, experienced FO or CPT) for the cost of a night in the hotel and a ticket on their own airline to reach the interview location.
It seems to be normal these days that pilots will line up and beg for a job while paying for the effort. Are we this desperate again?
I remember recruiting some metal workers at my parents company. Those that came a long way were provided with a hotel and a dinner. The company has not gone out of business since. Seems to be too expensive for airlines these days.
