When I interviewed, they made it sound like they wanted no failures in your record. Someone that interviewed with me had a prior 121 failure and was told during the interview that more then likely they would not hire him because of said failure. He was even told that he shouldn't of even made it to the interview in the first place. Kind of weird but thats what happened and atleast they were honest with him.
To add to previous post: I did not have any failures from previous licenses nor 121 initial training/recurrent.
One friend who interviewed did have a 121 recheck that was on his record and was honest and upfront about it on airlineapps. Was invited to interview but did not receive an offer. They are def not letting it slide by. He was thankful to make it that far and has another cargo job standing by. Again, just trying to pass along all the helpful info I have for those of you in the dark about a possible offer or interview. Best of luck to you all!

A question was raised earlier in this thread wondering if Airlineapps.com was working correctly. I'm not so sure.
I applied with another company through a different jobs board. Within an hour I received an email from the company saying they reviewed my resume and would I consider applying through airlineapp.com which I have for over a year and having their company as one of my targets. With that being said it makes me wonder if I'm even showing up at AE through airlineapps? Anyone have a similar experience?

With all the talk about busted check rides for 121 carriers, I was curious, part of the paperwork asked about any unsatisfactory training experiences or checks. I went to a part 141 school and had a few "stage checks" or "phase checks", but none resulted in any FAA pink slip or notification, I have cleared several years of 121 check rides since, do these need to be reported and do they matter? I have heard several peoples different opinions about if I should disclose them or not. Any Ideas?

Let me be a little more clear, I think they are most worried about you having any failure in the 121 environment because of 3407. They brought up the subject on more that one occasion. If you have a failure from something like a CFI ride, I don't think that is as crutial, unless you have multiple pink slips.
I also do not believe a failed stage check in 141 counts as it is not on your permanent FAA records.

You are not required to report those, as even the FAA can't get that information. It's like your school transcripts.

Just because you have a couple of busts doesn't make you a bad pilot, but the regionals are shaking and cracking down right now and want guys with clean records. That's just the way it is.

I'm hoping you're right about that and after all, it was a looong time ago when I was a relatively new pilot compared to my experience nowadays.
