April attendee, now a new hire
Hello 4myfamily, I was lucky enough to be able to attend the in house job fair back in April. I was offered an interview about 5 weeks after the event. I'm now a new hire. If it's anything like the event back in April, yes it was very laid back and friendly, yet very professional. Wear a suit, everyone was in suits and most of the SWA pilots were in their uniforms. The other Southwest employees were dressed business casual and all were very friendly and helpful. Be yourself, smile, be friendly, be genuine. These are the types of people they want to hire. I see way too many pilots placing too much emphasis on, hey I've got 90 gazillion hours, 15 type ratings, no checkride busts, hey man, it doesn't matter. Are you a good person? Are you personable and tolerable to be around and work with? Yes, experience means something, but they want the right fit for their culture and their company. You'll do great! Have fun, be yourself, the job is yours!

Does anyone know if there is a place there that will be available for us to put a rollaboard? Didn't know if they had a bag room or not. I'm coming in the night before and I was planning on taking an Uber to the event. So I won't have a rental car to keep my bag in.

What to bring?
Does anyone have any advice on what we should bring to this thing? I know it's "just" a career day and not an interview... but should we bring college transcript, logbooks (surely not?), resumes, etc.? I'm sure we obviously should bring a printed copy of PC application.
