No. The Furlough Coordinator at NK provides a list of names of those actively furloughed to United, who then shares it with the VP of Flight Ops, who in turn sends it to the Pilot Recruiting team. If you have an app in with UA and are on said list, the system will recognize your furlough status and award you additional points on your app which can HELP trigger the Hogan is you’re competitive. Check the box all you want, it doesn’t do a thing unless you are on the list provided to UA.
