Default Co-op employment

Another scenario: I had a co-op job while in college, so I was in classes for a quarter, then worked for a quarter....wash, rinse, repeat. But, I was considered a full-time student since my employment was through the school's co-op program.

My history is seamless from college to my first job after graduation and then through my time in the military (to present). So, on my application do I need to break down employment history by each quarter I worked or just leave it as all time in college?

I believe the bottomline is no gaps and make it readable with no red flags for computer to catch--tell the story you want to. IMO I don't think most college jobs are worth breaking out unless it is part of a larger picture that helps you distinguish yourself like it took you more than 5 years to graduate, or you paid your own way, etc.

Was the work in connection to the course of study and a requirement to graduate? If so, I'd just count it all as education time.

I am wondering if this is an application pool-wide maintenance or a focus on some potential interview invites? I certainly don't want to get my hopes up, but it would be great to hear if any of you get the "invite."
I think the fix it email means you're very close to getting the call. Don't forget to reply after you've made the appropriate corrections. FWIW I replied after I made my corrections and got the invite to interview within 2 weeks. My buddy (better qualified than me), got the fix it email and did not reply to it, and has heard nothing. May be coincidence though.

Ditto to this. I got two fix it emails. And replied with a very polite "thank you for the emails, I have made the requested updates, thank you for your consideration, please let me know if you need any more info, etc...etc..." Got the interview email about 2 weeks later.

Good luck!

Received fix it emails initially back in September. Cleaned up work history between 10 years and college. Sent reply of completion. No call ever came.
Received a second round of fix it emails for medical date and having no GPA indicated for a flight school 3 weeks ago. Again replied after correcting the items. Still no follow up emails.

Thanks for making me not feel alone. I had a correction e-mail for my education and ratings last Sept. I added all initial training events that resulted in a type rating (even an SIC rating). Sent a reply and radio silence since. Civilian with 121 and 135 background, check-airman letter, 6200 TT...

I wouldn't try to read too much into a reply. I got a fix-it email in January, fixed it and replied via email the same day. Crickets since then. Mil IP/EP fighters/trainers, 3k+, all possible containers checked minus 121/FAA examiner type stuff.

Who wants to start a support group for those of us in "fix-it email purgatory?" :-)
