My experience exactly. BUT, when I sign into my SWA account and click on "Applications," for my 12 Sep application under "Job Status" it says "Closed," just like my two previous apps (March and October 11). Have I been tossed already? :(

My application on sea/careers says the same thing. I'm guessing someone is actually looking at the apps now and is sending links as they get through apps. I don't think you're done yet. Good luck!

I take it you did not already have a profile at pilot credentials?

I wasn't sure how the whole process worked. Right after I did the swa/careers site I jumped right over to pilotcredentials.com. So, technically, prior to this window opening, no I didn't have a profile.

I wouldn't fret Herkdrivr,
They want everything in by 30SEP., I don't expect to hear anything till Oct anyway.
I interviewed once and they really treated us great, will see what happens this round.
Best of luck to everyone!

"Don't worry about the job status saying "closed". As long as you applied and got the confirmation "thank you for applying" email you're good to go."

Duh. Thanks. I read this a couple of days ago but mentally associated it with the discussion about there periodically not being any jobs to apply for on the SWA site, i.e., the ability to apply was up and down on the site.

Second time was a charm for a couple of my buds, good luck!

As far as being treated well, one guy I know went so far as to say he'd had such a great time at the interview that he'd like to go back and do it again just because everyone was so nice, and he hated interviews...

Has anyone who has interviewed that did not get the job in a previous opening, that has already had a profile on pilot credentials get the second email asking to fill out a profile?

I applied again the day it opened and have only got the one email saying thanks for applying. I interviewed once already in 2011 but was unsuccessful. Just curious if anyone is in the same boat I am.

ATR42,
Interviewed once before as well.
Had profile on swa/credentials that I hadn't updated in a long time.
Received "New Hire Window to Open" e-mail from SWA support dept., stating the window was opening, fill out everything on SWA/careers site and update your file on SWA/credentials site.
Did so that morning (THU 12SEP).
Received 2nd e-mail from SWA the next morning (13SEP) which was an automated response stating my application was received.
My status on SWA/careers is now "closed" which I take to be normal at this point in the process.
I hope this helps and sure wish you the best of luck.

If anyone wanted to share, would like to know how many hours people have, have the type, four year, military, etc. Could be fierce I imagine.
