I had an app review with Cage and they recommended I go ahead and submit my app and update later with my Certificate number once received. In an effort to be as truthful as possible, I left my certificate number as temporary as my ATP certificate number was at the time still not yet processed by the Airman Registry.

I was very fortunate to get an invite to a chief pilot meet and greet recently. It was a phenomenal experience that I think went well. One of the pilots on special assignment in the room mentioned I should update my application to reflect the ATP certificate number that I now have in hand. I can’t find a way to get the new internal app to let me do this, so I emailed pilothiring at United, still waiting on an answer.

I’m worried my application will go unpicked due to my ATP certificate number reading “temporary”. Does anyone have any insight into whether or not the system will auto-filter out my application? Or am I just being too paranoid?

Thanks for any insight. United has been my dream job for over a decade, so I’m just trying to make sure some boneheaded mistake on my part doesn’t kill the dream.
