Took a quick spin by their website out of curiosity aaaaaaaaaand I'll just let everyone else know what I saw.

I get it: we're human, we're imperfect, but come on man. You're starting up a shop in aviation...best make sure you've got the word airport down pat.

Just an initial thought so far.

I remember one startup airline that had the word "hangar" spelled as "hanger" numerous times on their website....they finally started flying after years of delays and ended up shutting down about six months later, I believe.
 
I just looked at the Sterling website and realized I know their CEO...he was the NOC manager of the first regional airline I worked at. I don't mean to be overly negative, but I'd personally seek employment elsewhere.
 
Wexford Capital behind them with a core management group that are ex Chautauqua and Republic. Not a bad spot to start a career or maybe resume one.
 
A strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications and the movie, “Airplane!”

Wonder if they are trying to be hip and cool with that requirement.
 
I already love how people put “initial group of leadership includes personnel that have been in the airline industry for a combined 200+ years.”.

I also love how they put the years of experience, like that really matters.
