The beauty of this organization is that noone knows exactly what is happening and what lies in the future. Sticking to the topic of recruitment, i have spoken to over a dozen employees of AI Express, some from the management and some even at the level of check pilots, but unfortunately everyone has given me a different picture. After talking to them i am not even able to deduce whether there is a crew shortage or they are overstaffed. Some say thatthere is an acute crew shortage and they need to hire asap, but due to the procedures and involvment of AI HR, and other officials its causing a delay which is also leading to cancellations of flights. On the contraray soMe suggest that they are overstaffed and pilots are not being utilized to their capacity and quite a few are just waiting to get online after their training and its been over a year that they have been sitting idle. I absolutely have no idea whom to believe and whom not to.
