Interesting thread!
I'm a current regional CA, previous experience in corporate, charter, and instruction. All civilian.
Two PIC type ratings
5200 TT
1400 PIC
4150 Multi
~400 TPIC
B.S. Engineering from a top ranked engineering school, 3.5 GPA.
I volunteer with multiple organizations.
Over 15 recommendations, from line pilots, LCAs, CPs, and sim instructors. Also from people outside aviation.
5 internals with UAL
3 internals with DAL
Two professional reviews of my application and resume.
I've been to one job fair, and am attending OBAP next month.
Zero checkride failures, a history of 3 minor speeding tickets, the last one was over five years ago. Clean background otherwise.
I've had my apps in for years, and have never heard a word. Companies applied to include UAL, DAL, AMR, and FedEx. Internal references with all of them (including a sponsor with FedEx).

Have you ever failed ANY checkrides (military or civilian) including phase checks, proficiency checks, FAA check rides, or line checks?

When I went into the interview they had already changed the addendum to specify SUPT busts. I added them, they asked me and that was the end of that discussion. Just wanted to see if I was upfront about it and what I learned. Basically a non issue.
Guard guy, have yo had a reference send an email to pilot recruiting to pull your app to be scored? I had a 2.6 undergrad and had less hours and was given an invite. Additionally volunteer work is heavily weighted. PM me if you need me to look at your app. I used an outside company to review it and I was complimented on my app during the interview which also has a score in the HR panel.
