Ignore those that tell you the recruiting situation is bad, or paint the most pessimistic picture possble. I have seen all sorts of wrong rumours typed by people who are purely speculating here. They are still recruiting aircrew. Maybe not quite in such numbers, but the cuts are not as dramatic as some make out.
Go with a positive attitude and enjoy it.
I agree, I have found that some candidates are the worst for fuelling these rumors. Not being 'in the know' yet hungry for any information on the recruiting situation. I have heard everything from there being no pilot slots this year to 110. Fact is, the branch hasn't closed off yet, so who cares how many slots there are if they are still recruiting? You only need one of them!
