If you are not setup in the 415 Excess Plan, it comes back to you in cash after taxes. The 415 plan is another tax deferred bucket that is available.

Congrats and welcome to SWA (assuming you decide to accept the CJO). Since you'll be in the first class of this hiring cycle, you'll most likely only be on reserve a few months if you want to be based out west.

Thanks OB! Yes, any the western bases would be my initial preference.

My interview date was 5/7

Anyone know what the ratio is of people getting hired? I know you used to have to typically interview more than once to get a CJO. Just wondering if that's still the case...
