Anyone? Anyone?

Holding DAL would just be guess. Reserve is in your domicile. You can try to give it away and pick up in Dallas, but it would be rare to be succesfull.

The most junior FO in DAL was hired March 2011. Rolf is correct, FO weekend AM reserve is not the most desirable give away in the system. You can pick up trips or blocks of reserve from any domicile.

I was told by some friends you would get a link emailed to you. I applied ~24 hours ago and haven't been sent the link yet. It is a 2 week window so I'll give it a couple days and start panicking later if I don't get the link sent :).

I've applied for two of the positions and each time it just says "closed" with no link sent. I had gotten on pilot credentials early and had a profile up but I read then to go back and apply on SWA too...but I have received nothing from SWA. Has anyone else gotten an email following the SWA application?

The only E-mail I got was confirmation that my application has been received. I am with the others and checking my E-mail many times a day to see if I get the link to Pilot Credentials. From the way it sounded in the posting, if you meet the minimums you will get the link. After that is when it gets harder.

That's the one I got. Trying to stay patient waiting for the follow-up E-mail.

Relax, everyone. As I recall, the last time they did this, it took a while for them to sift through the resumes before sending out the links to Pilot Credentials. Think of this first step as a filter for those who have automatic disqualifiers like too few hours or no First Class Medical. IIRC, they only sent the link after your initial app has been reviewed and made the first cut. It's not automatic.
