Can't say I've heard of this before; maybe I'm just out of the loop. This link to the prune thread was started by someone who appears to be an American saying that Skywest is "sponsoring" Australians for work visas to fly for them.
I asked a question or two but haven't gotten a particularly clear answer from the OP and I can't find the info he mentions on the Skywest website.
It would seem from the info posted so far that Skywest is "sponsoring" expats for work visas vs just hiring those who show up with one they got by themselves. Most airlines these days, in the pilot requirements list, say, "...or the legal right to work in the USA...", or words to that effect. But "sponsoring" has a specific legal definition, IIUC.
Anyone know if this is accurate ?
