etflies, I assume you had more PIC on top of your 200 turbine?

Congrats! Did you get your 737 type in the military? Or did you get it for Southwest? Were you asked about it at the interview?

DAL

Published ap: ~ 30 Mar 15
Interview invite: 15 Jul 15
Interviewed: 29 Sep 15
Hired: 30 Sep 15

TT: 5,341
PIC: 4,151
IP: 3,207
Turbine: 5,270
ME: 2,582

Was told to not expect a call until ~ 2nd quarter 2016.

SUPER friendly people at DAL. If you get the interview invite they really DO want to hire you.

Initially I was a little concerned because I hadn't flown a heavy in 14 years (T-6s for a very, VERY long time). Also was very nervous about number of driving tickets but I listed them all and still got hired. Bachelor's only (even had 2 F's on my Master's transcript, which, as I said, I did not finish....they did ask about it but I explained why it happened and they were satisfied). Again, they excel at putting you at ease so don't shoot yourself in the foot.

Advice: focus more on Delta's "what to study" sheet for the aviation knowledge test than the gouge; out of 60 questions I think I saw maybe 10 that came directly from the gouge. Practice any way you can on the cog skills; the multi-tasking "same/different" with the moving glideslope one is tricky (but doable), the "guess the rule" with the arrows and borders was fricking hard at first (seemed like everything I tried got the dreaded "bee-boop" and there is NOT much time to sit there and contemplate what to try next) and the multi-tasking sliding bar and "same/different" test about killed me....MUCH harder than I thought because I couldn't get a consistent L/R tap rhythm like I hoped.

Good luck to everyone! :-)

I got it after I got out - Higher Power. I was asked about it...just casual question about why I wasn't already at SW.

No. Don't qualify (don't have 1000 PIC). Otherwise - I would have.
