Couldn't figure that out either... I accidentaly uploaded the same resume twice.... I didn't want to look computer illiterate, but couldn't delete one of them...
Hopefully when my referral(s) walk in my stuff it becomes a moot point
Gonna be a long 2 weeks for the window to close and even longer waiting for a call if it comes..
BTW do they call or e-mail interview requests?

When I interviewed last year they asked me if I would move to Hawaii. I said no...that I would live on the West Coast initially. When they asked why, I said that it would be unreasonable to expect one to take care of their family on a first year salary of about $33,000 per year pre-tax with the cost of living in Hawaii taken into account. Never got a call back from them...I wonder why?

So it seems that, unless you are a native islander, have mega connections at HAL or have some squadron buddies pulling for you, chances are you won't be getting a call for interview even with times far north of the mins.....
Not trying to be a pessimist here but thats the vibe I get from all the posts I am reading.

If you're qualified, and understand the cultural sensitivies, cost of living, relative isolation, and other island issues, and are still interested, by all means apply and compete! Be willing to put a lot of work into it, and you'll get an outstanding career out of it!

I'm not a native or a local and had zero connections. Still got invited to the interview AND phase 3. However, my dream in life is to settle down in Hawaii and I made that clear during the interview. As far as getting hired who knows what would've happened if I would've been able to make it to that last phase... If you're qualified, you never know.

They hired a Usair pilot 4 years ago. He quit within the first month after finding out he would not be captain within a year. Guys like him don't help the mainlanders get hired.
Its a good gig with a good retirement plan, a lot of growth in the future. Management is still management, but they do seem to know what they are doing. It is not for everyone and I would not recommend commuting since it is so far from even the west coast.
