When I was at Indoc almost a year ago, Capt O.C. Miller, the Managing Director of Flying Ops (and AK's boss) was asked this exact question. He was very specific in stating that they will only score an applicant's app once every 12 months - regardless of additional internal recs. He said that some apps may slip through the crack more often, but that Delta's policy is to wait 12 months before a rescore.

Additionally, Post 5515 in this thread back in November, mountainmojo confirmed the same policy is still in effect.

Believe it, or don't believe it, just don't count on getting your app scored again within 12 months. Maybe you'll get lucky, I hope you do. Just plan accordingly.

Good Luck!
Obviously, the communication is not uniform (Capt. Miller vs. DeltaNet). If either of us was a senior Delta pilot with little to no understanding of the current hiring practices and we solely referenced what was on DeltaNet then, based on your intel, he/she would be unintentionally misleading candidates. My indoc class over a year ago also had Capt. Miller and gave a briefing along the lines of what I've been sharing. So, it appears the policy has changed. The more recs someone gets, IMO, there should be more opportunities to get scored.
