Is their website actually an effective place to apply for a job they have listed? I recently applied for a non-flying job they have posted and didn’t even get an automated email saying it was received.
Is this typical? Should I expect one after a few days? Just want to make sure that they actually get applications that come in directly from their website.

The gears of the HR department work slowly. I’m not sure what position you applied for but there really doesn’t seem to be a consistent timeframe of when to expect or call, or even get one. If it’s a position they want to fill urgently, you could probably expect one, (A/P, CSR). However the timeframe is anyone’s guess.

Word is that they are keenly seeking a qualified Director of Operations, and are willing to consider outside candidates. I'm a bit surprised they aren't able to fill that position internally. Opportunity for somebody!
Recent events will probably dictate a need for a qualified A&P or three. Things can only improve.
Customer Service Agents are needed in select locations around the country. And you could probably get in as a dispatcher.
But like everywhere else, there's not much need for line pilots until the regionals are really hiring again.
