I don't think flying experience has anything to do with getting an interview anymore. I've been to a few job fairs in the last year and SWA keeps telling me "everything looks good, and to keep updating."

The whole thing has become quite the joke IMO.
Pffft! Silly man. 11 years heavy jet international time does not necessarily qualify you to be a SWA pilot. Go get some time flying a single seat fighter in a non-multicrew, non-airline environment into non-high density airports and see how quickly you'll get picked up
