Default Swa Aug Db

Anyone have any idea when in Aug SWA's DB will be?

Have had 3 refs called within a week of my interview. Everyone tells me that's a good sign. But I've heard of guys getting turned down in spite of having references called.

Any stats or inputs some of you might want to share would be helpful and interesting...
Cheers

What does WN at SWA mean? What number are the new hires at and the most junior captain at?

I believe WN is SWA's CASS code. So many people use as short-hand for Southwest. And yes, having your references called is a good thing but it's no guarantee. Mine were called and I got shot down on eh June DB. Good luck.

Default Db

SWA turns down about 15% of folks at the DB. Usually due to lying on the application, a DWI, DUI or a background problem.

Generally, if you make it to the DB, you are in. Unless you were featured on NBC's "To catch a predator"...

Peace, Im out.

I got turned down my first time after having ref. called. I had made it to the decision board with a totally clean background. I'm not sure how the decision is made. I am in the pool now after my second time around.

If it helps--I got hired and SWA only called one of my references.
