I think they only email you to update an app if it's missing something they want to see. In my case I had forgotten to put my high school info down.

I think Huey is correct. I got an email from United several months ago indicating I had erroneously listed my references in the affiliates section. This came mere days after publishing my app.

congrats! That's an impressive background. I don't even have half your TT! Great to hear of the high success rate at UAL, hopefully all the other majors follow suit and start filling up their pools to at least 100 or so.

congrats to all who have gotten the call so far... keep it going I can't wait to see nice happy faces around here. I saw one of the 717s yesterday at the ATL... in and out of the gate pretty quickly. Should be fun.

Your qualifications are solid. Have you been a check airman or mil IP/EP? If you go through the list of whos been hired, they make up a majority of the list, and of course well-networked, meet and greet, relatives, best buddies, flow-thrus etc. Basically, hiring is taking place the way it should (well, flow-thrus can be debated, I wont comment). Its still going to take a while to exhaust that "elite" group. Then it will be open season for the rest of us. Don't read into my term "elite" too much, it is in no way a measure of good pilot vs. bad, or smart vs not so smart. Its just extra boxes you check on an application to help filter through a stack of 10,000. I would estimate theres probably 1,000 or so elites out there. Once theyre all hired, youll see the rest of us get calls. And it will be gangbusters.
