1. What is a good time to send in an application? is sooner better than later?
2. Will a speeding ticket from 2010 and 2014 (no DUI, no suspensions) make a difference in the application? I plan to mention those of course.
3. I have recommendation letters from regional pilots and AA pilots, is it a huge benefit to have letters from United pilots as well? Or just a nice to have?
Thank you for your kind input!
Apply now and go meet them at a job fair and keep updating your application.
