I have applied many times hoping for a chance to get on with Atlas. Are they really thinking that a 737 type rating is a reason not to look at someone. I have six types, including 737, I thought that was a good thing showing an ability to learn and fly a variety of different aircraft. I never thought a 737NG type would hold me back from furthering my career.

Had the phone interview Feb 4th, tech test Feb 7th now waiting to see where it goes from here, got the 66. There were a few questions that were posted on here but quite a few off the wall questions I havent seen on any of the forums. Having said books at my side really helped.

I don't see the connection...If you are qualified to apply at Atlas and have a 737 rating then you are qualified to apply at Southwest. How does a 747 type and international experience make you more desirable at a domestic 737 operator?
