Did you have a previous application in? I also heard the call you are getting is not from Alaska, but the people that work for Smart Recruiters. Not sure if that is true.

I submitted my resume on Smart Recruiters in January.

When you joined did you create an account or login with LinkedIn?

I think that is it. Now I know why they said not to log in with LinkedIn at WAI. If you log in with your LinkedIn profile smart recruiters never sees it, but Alaska does.

And your grandfather is the eskimo on the tail, right?

I did the phone screen back in January. Not sure if it's more points but rather to keep you hooked before looking to go elsewhere. From my perspective it doesn't provide any benefit other than getting your hopes up but who knows.
