Do you know if they venture beyond the PNW? Puyallup is a little tough in getting to for a lot of people. Thanks for the response.

Merry Christmas

It is but they highly value it because they are looking for local folks...

Is the application window open until Dec 29 or Dec 24? I've seen a few references which say Dec 29, but the posting on their Careers page says to apply on or before Dec 24.

Well I finished my application with a killer cover letter tonight and it did not take it, saying job posting no longer available. I am bummed about it.

Once the first (only?) page is ready, if you select "submit", do you go on to another page for more info or to attach docs or are you done? I feel like I'm missing something and am reticent to hit select.

App window is still open. The listing says it was posted on the 25th. Maybe they closed it on the 24th and opened a new one on the 25th due to some strange limitation.

That's interesting. The previous app window had a job posting date of the 20th, I never checked on the first one that opened on the 16th but I know of someone who was applying at the end of last week who said the FO job was gone and was disappointed (momentarily).

Maybe this is like a US Air thing, where you are applying to the same job but different job #s as they delete and add new postings. I hope there isn't preference given for getting in first!

OK, I submitted and it seems like all is well except one day has gone by with no "thank you" e-mail. How long did it take for some of you to receive the blank e-mail?

From the application page, make sure it's saved, then click "previous page" - that should take you to your "career tools" page where you can attach documents like a cover letter or letter of recommendation. You can do all that, then go back to the application page to "submit".

But I don't think the order matters - I submitted my application, then the next day I was still able to upload a letter of recommendation I was waiting on from a buddy.

Good Luck!
