Southwest Application Question

[Whodat]

When you fill out the online application, is there a place where you put in your swa references, or does that come after you get called for the interview?
Thanks

After you get called for an interview, you will then bring LOR for the interview.

I believe on the application there is simply a spot to select which says that you have 3 individuals (swa or other) that can attest to your flying abilities. Once you get the interview date, you call your SWA references, let them know the month you are interviewing. They go on the internal company website and fill out a reference form on line.

Cheers.... and good luck!

Sure wish they'd call me, anyone getting the call without the type lately?

Best to my understanding no applicant without a type is being considered for an interview at this time. Things do change. When they run out of currently typed applicants (especially 1st time applicants) they will then consider others. Hope this helps.

Just not true. They are interviewing guys WITHOUT types. I know one. Military fighter background, 2000ish PIC turbine. Granted, your chances are better with a type, but it's not an absolute. Good luck.

Good. I'm glad I was wrong on that one. A PHX chief told a 73 type class in PHX that only typed applicants considered at this time. Good luck to all.

90% of August interviews have the type.

Are they still sticking with first timers for the most part?

Not really. Quite a few guys waiting for a second chance are getting pulled.

Thanks 328...

Anyone know about how many second timers have been in their interview groups? Thanks

Have the type, 6000 hrs in the airplane and 715 PIC in it. Been thinking of applying. Can anyone give me an idea as to how long it takes from submitting an application to interview and if actual time in the airplane increases a persons chance of getting an interview sooner or not. Thanks
