Many people are hired on their second and even third attempt. To be honest, I was much more excited 9 years ago when I got the invitation.

You where much more excited 9 years ago, on your first chance? Well, plenty are looking for their first chance, that are just excited as you were a decade ago. Good luck. Keep us posted!

Pilotrob, I don't know your background, but it appears the culture has changed at WN. They don't seem to care about recommendations until you "score" enough points to land an interview. I suggest going out and renting an F something for a few hours.

The career prospects at SWA looked much different then. If I had been hired then, I'd be close to upgrade now. Now, it's 20+ years. Thanks for the well wishes but I most likely will be declining the invitation. At least it will open up an interview spot for someone who really wants the job.
