Question Airlineapps.com and Reserve Units?

It says to list all "permanent duty stations" under employers. This obviously applies to active duty, but what about drilling reserves? Did anyone list every reserve unit?

Also it talks about listing all employers, and then it talks about going back ten years for background checks. Do they mean all employers in the last ten years, or is it all employers, ever?

Thanks for any insight!

My understanding for airlineapps is that they wanted your previous employment like it would ultimately appear on a resume with no breaks in 'service' or employment unless annotated with the reason. I broke out all duty stations/reserve assignments (even though the employer - Navy, was the same) when I filled out my apps after leaving active duty. I got out in 2008 (no hiring) so I also kept them current with civilian employment as well until I ultimately decided to not go the airline route and not keep my apps up to date. Good luck!

I listed mine. I think the intent is to know your work history and what you've been doing.

I broke up all of my PCS locations, and extended TDYs for a few schools that exceeded a few months. As long as you can show the continuous employment it will be fine. Probably do not need to get too crazy on it.

Thanks guys. Another one:

I have past employers who no longer exist, or the boss has long since moved on. Should I just put the address, boss, and phone number that was valid when I worked there, or should I try to find somebody there with a current phone number who can vouch for me to list as "supervisor"? I'm leery of doing that since it doesn't literally represent the facts they asked for. It would be nice if they had a comments block for each employer.

A lot of these are non-flying jobs or mil assignments.

And another one.

Delta and United both have addendums which ask about convictions, etc. I don't have any, but am unclear if they mean to include minor traffic violations here?

I don't want to get weeded out because I checked the box, nor do I want to fail to disclose something, even though there's another section for traffic violations in the main application.
