SWA Oct Decision Board

[falcondrivr]

got it straight from a c/p that was at the d/b: all calls went out before the weekend. sucks for me. they hired 60 of 160 that they reviewed. (whatever that means cause i thought they interviewed about 240 pilots in sept) does anyone know what the date is that starts the 12 month wait?

Well I dont know about that. I know for a fact there were two weeks alone they interviewed 24 a day (8 days = 192 pilots) and then there were probably other interview days as well........way more than 160 were interviewed.......it aint over till you get your letter!

Thank you for staying positive!

To all that are out there like me somewhere in the post, had your recs called, and which DB you are in , as well as are the phone calls done phase at SWA?. It is not over yet!!!! They told me 4-6 weeks and that was just two days ago to start week 4. There is hope for us all and we must want LUV as bad now as we did when we applied. It's all in there hands. I have learned to be patient.


Any more information like the previous posts from those that are waiting and some that have gotten the call....... Thank you for your support and time as you gather info us as well. Keep it coming and I will post whatever INTEL I can find out as well.

We like calls and not the letters!!!!

any info

I appreciate any info like others that have posted as to what is going on with the Oct DB. Maybe some calls tomm. Since there are no interviews on Friday usually. GOOD LUCK! Happy to hear any news!

Look to all of you driving yourself crazy. The October DB is over and all calls have been made. The earlier post talking about the P.D. department stating that they still have calls to make-well it just isn't true. As I stated in prior posts last week, it was confirmed to me by a good friend and Asst Chief for SWA that he knew that all calls were made prior to last weekend. As far as the numbers put up here earlier 60 hired out of 160, well nobody knows who goes to the D.B.? Yeah I know they say everyone goes, but I highly doubt it.
The SWA P.D. has just way too much on its plate right now to accomodate everyone interviewed. People have asked about references called on this board, well it seems to be an early indication by the interview team that they agree the person should be recommended to the D.B. No refs called seems to be well a "No-Go". Even if the refs are called and you make the cut-no guarantees. If we all knew the formula we could either now be employed by SWA or become very rich in selling " SWA Guaranteed Interview Prep ".

By the mere fact people get hired WITHOUT their references called tells me to ignore your negative post. Thanks anyway!

Just checked the mail!?

Still no letter as of Friday, Oct 20th. So your saying there is still a chance? I may be an idealist and not a realist ,but the Buckeyes did win a national championship in 2002 and there chances are looking good again this year. I will be covinced when I get the letter until then I as well as everyone else should remain hopeful.

There have been people on this board that have had to wait two weeks to a month after the DB to get the call without getting the letter. This should be enough to remain hopeful.

Me likes the phone calls!

Exactly

Exactly...finally a realist here! The 160 number is the number that went to the DB. I know they say everyone goes, but they don't (or at least they're in the garbage can in the same room). It's rude, when you think about it...the interviewers know the day you leave if you're continuing or not, yet they make you sweat it for another 4 - 6 weeks. Jetblue lets you know within 3 days if you didn't make it past Phase 1.
The year starts from your date of interview.

still no call no letter?!

Friday is about over and i have heard nothing. No news is good news. Keep the faith. Have a good weekend.

 

[heywatchthis]

GOT THE LETTER! FU-CKKKKK!

Printed on the 16th, mailed on the 19th, and received today the 21st. I live in IAH so I guess I am one of the first.

Interviewed Sept. 7th!

Now what do I do?
