- Best hotel to stay at? I saw one post mention the Wyndham near the airport is good.
- My interview is in 1 week and the Hiring Forms tab on pilotcredentials is blank - no documents, nor have I received any additional instructions or emails from SW. Is this normal or is there something I need to do?|
- What is the protocol in terms of bringing my logbook to the interview? I use Logbook Pro on my computer and have everything printed and included in a very nice leather bound logbook. Am I expected to bring my old/backup logbooks that I used to enter data into Logbook Pro? I ask because this would be many small logbooks, miscellaneous papers and a lot of my flights were logged via software on my phone so there would be a lot of holes and stuff missing. So nowadays, is a printed logbook from my computer acceptable or do they expect additional documents?
Thanks a bunch!
Well I have a few thoughts on the issues you are presented with.
Wyndam is good its where I stayed at. They even gave me the SWA rate that was $86 about out the door.
gouge look at aviation interviews, or will fly for food.
logbook, I brought my logbook which is electronic and printed out into a similar binder you speak of. This in my opinion is a nice presentation I also had my original logbooks but did not present those, I would have had I been asked. Mine are really messy.
As far as your issue with pilot credentials I would call the support number asap, or the people department quickly I had an issue with pilot credentials as well and it was sorted out with a quick email.
SWA has a lot of paper work and following their directions can be frustrating. Some forms auto populate some don't and they have contradictory instructions for some things. Best of luck
you should get a an email with a barcode on it soon this is your pass into the building.
So take this for what is its I have interviewed twice with SWA and have been passed over. I guess I'm not SWA material after all I'm not a military guy in his 40's with no 121 time who will vote yes on any contract this up for a vote.
