There is NOT a pilot shortage in the US.
I was just discussing the US job situation last night and saw this advert today.
There may be a great shortage of people who cannot afford to live on a virtually non existent wage.
Regional carriers may be struggling to find reasonable quality candidates with the 1500hrs min and FAA ATP certificate as now required for a regional or any other FAR Part 121 air carrier operation now that the FAA changed the min requirements after the Colgan Dash 8-400 crash.
AFAIK this came into effect in the last 12 months.
Still if this ad is legit it will lead to a job that you CANNOT financially live on in any US city where you are likely to be based.
Also, IF you leave the company that originally employs you, most likely your US temporary work visa will be canceled and you will be required to leave ASAP.
An excellent and 110% correct article here-

Tread carefully for anyone thinking about it.
