For those of you that still say "received submission", did you check in at the computer station?

I did. I was told, "OK, we've got you down."

I attended the afternoon session on 9/30. My status is 'Received Submission'. Seemed like a positive experience and I felt like they were trying to sell us on coming to work there. Been trying to get a interview for 10 years and may never know the secret. 8000 TT. 7300 PIC and 3200 hours PIC Jet.

You either don't fly very much or had very little time when you first applied 10 years ago. If you are all civilian, you are just getting to the average flight time for an interview based on historic hiring stats. This would be the time to not give up. If you have every other box checked, you should hear something soon.

What's the other 4,100 PIC in? That's a lot of PIC time for only 8,000 hrs TT. You never sat in right seat?

Kings Airs, Cessnas, Pipers, Mooneys. You name it I flew it. I always ended up as a PIC in a short time for various reasons. 6000 hours of it is multi engine. Has not helped me get a interview at SWA

It's been rehashed a bunch in this and other threads, but those of you above not getting the calls have you checked the tiny things in your Pilot Credentials such as updated medical, passport, and date of availability?

When I was at the Job Fair the pilot who sat down with me went through every page in Pilot Credentials and made sure everything thing was up to date and made any suggestions he could think of. Problem is not there but that is a good suggestion.
