I'd like to be able to submit my application ASAP after I complete my ATP and I don't want to delay that process - but at the same time, I don't want to submit an application without having completed my ATP.
Also, if I'm still actively flying, do I just pick a cut-off date for my total hours since I'll still be flying after submitting my application? Do I have to keep updating the applications every week/month with additional hours flown?
Yes, I believe the Airline Apps (UA/DL) and the Pilot Credentials (AA/FDX/SWA) sites have the ability to publish the app at will. I wouldn’t fill out apps for UPS, SWA, jetBlue, or Spirit on their career pages though as I don’t think they have this function.
