This is a valid concern. I don’t know about other companies, but Delta doesn’t use a computer to screen applications before a human looks at them. If an app is pulled, a human reads and scores it.
Certainly a wreck won’t help, nor checkride busts or traffic tickets. But at least at Delta you won’t be eliminated from consideration by a computer if you mark “yes” to any of the questions asking about negative aspects of your career (which most of us have in our past by the time we’re competitive for the majors).

If you don't know anyone, the apps get manually reviewed when your score gets high enough relative to all the other applicants in the pile. So yes there's always a manual review, but you also need to score high enough to get looked at. Unless they've changed it recently. Or unless you have a buddy there.

Mishaps will not affect your chances of being hired if a federal board determined that it was not your fault. Having one may actually be a great story to tell at an interview, and be a chance to demonstrate your pilot skills in response to an emergency, act of god, or someone else's error.

Depends on who you read if it was a runway excursion or a landing on dirt. Pay your penny and take your pick:

AVherald quotes the FAA as saying the same thing.
Personally I think it's far more likely it was excursion off the pavement, but like I said before I did see a guy try to land in the grass once.
