Is UAL planning any open recruiting events like Delta's recently-announced "pilot career expo" in ATL...or whatever they're calling it ? Rumor mill says this will be a quarterly event.

I think I remember UAL doing something for regional pilots but the details escape me...or perhaps I'm just not remembering correctly.

Any info you can add to flesh out UAL's hiring posture would help a lot of people.
There was an ALPA carrier job fair. Well two of them to be exact.

The latest a number are 1,000 new hires in 2017 and 1,200 in 2018. The training center in Denver has 30 sim bays I think and they are building a whole new wing to house 8 more. It's going to be rocking and rolling in the school house.
