I have a green check for employment history on the front page. Am I shooting myself in the foot because I am trying to list every place I have worked, no matter how short? If these were not in there I wouldn't be getting these messages. I have sent an email to pilot credentials to see if it matters. But, I would love to find out what anyone else might know.... thanks
Please let us know what you hear. I think this system has a few quirks...
Hey, Everyone! I heard from pilotcredentials this evening. They said the system doesn't detect overlapping employment entries at this time. The people in the hiring office are aware, and as long as the data you've entered is such that all the time is accounted for then you are good to go. Just make sure all time is accounted for, and gaps in employment should be filled out using "unemployment"(or appropriate reason) under the company name.
Hope this helps everyone! Oh, and btw I am in the club that hasn't gotten a single email either. But, as long as my phone is working I don't think it matters

Upon review, I got the message saying I had a gap in employment. The reason was that one of the jobs was a college internship so there was a gap between that job and when I finished school. Did anybody else have a situation like this where the reason for the gap is college? I could account for it in the education section but I'd hate to be DQ'd because some computer formula says my app is incomplete. I emailed the support site so I'll post when I get an answer.

Otto, I actually had the exact same situation...an employment gap between completing an internship and graduation. I made a new employment entry and listed the employer as "unemployed student". I emailed the pilotcredentials folks as well, but haven't heard anything yet.
On a different note, is anyone else able to hit "save" after downloading a resume? I was able to download my resume and my profile is supposedly complete and active. I'm just curious why the resume section is the only page that does not have a "save" option.
Thanks, and good luck!
