Have to agree here. Not doubting that what the OP wrote, but from a PR point of view, how would Delta explain it to the public if there were an incident/accident involving the pilot who Delta hired with 4 check ride busts, no how matter how insignificant they may seem to you or me. We live in a transparent world where everything is put under a microscope and this would be very difficult to explain away.

Typically takes around 30 days to get it pulled, scored, and an interview invite. It sounds like it's been slowing down lately in preparation for the busy summer season, so it they may be running a little longer than that.

Delta
Got hired through SSP.
PVT pilot bust (didn’t like my rudder
control during stalls)
CFII oral exam bust
UPT T-1 first checkride busy for not being fully configured before turning for a long base to final
T-1 oral instrument bust
So I technically had four too. I talked about how I was glad I failed, the lessons I learned, and how it made me a better pilot to the extent they were like “ok ok that’s enough”.

Should I even Try or wait a little longer?
2000 TT
1700 ERJ145
Working for a 121 Regional right now I have about 500 hrs.
Prior military experience as a C-17 Loadmaster (Aircrew)
I can probably get at least two internal recs. (Prior AF pilots working at Delta now)
BA Aeronautical Science 3.1 GPA
No Checkride Failures
No DUI's
My question is should I even fill out an app? or wait longer until I have more hours and I am more competitive?
Thanks

There is a lot to go through in the app, worst case you've done most of the leg work for when you're more competitive. They can't call you until you have an app in, better to let them decide when you're competitive than risk delaying longer than they would have called you.
