Excel:

I don't know if writing on your cover letter or application that you will move to a base will get you an interview or for that matter the job, but it wouldn't hurt mentioning that.

About the second application, I've heard that a lot of applicants have a lot of problems either updating the profile on our site. I'll try to find out some more about it.

If you have a link that still lets you update the application, by all means do it. I don't know if that puts you anywhere else than where you are on the list.

Sometimes being a pain in the arse when you want a job will get you that job, but with moderation.

Best of luck, and I'll post what I find out.

Cheers.
