Delta hiring in 2013

Does court imposed community service count?

I laughed at this one.

On topic though, I have heard from several sources that community service is very important to the application sifters at the majors.

Go to any airlines corporate relations or investor page, and look at the charities and community service that airline sponsors and how much money they give. That should give any applicant a big clue.

Just tell them you service yourself on every layover...

If you have several thousands hours of flight time in the regionals or wherever and your record is clean you can fly. There are thousands of pilots that can fly. They can train you to fly how they want but they can't change your personality.
What they are looking for is do you fit in with the company and would they want to deal with you for the next 20-30 years. You might be a top gun pilot but a complete ass. Who wants to spend 200 hours a month in a cockpit with a guy who's a complete jackass?
Flying skills is only part of the job.

I'm amazed that you made that statement, you just have to read some of the posts on FI to understand that jackasses get hired at mainline all the time.
