2018 Hiring
Good morning to everyone,
Checking the company website regularly, but looking for any intel about when the next hiring winds will take place, also any potential job fair SWA will participate to or the next "in-house" event.
Thank you in advance.

I don't know when the next one will happen, but they will advertise it on https://swa.pilotcredentials.com
Just keep an eye on that site, and make plans to attend Women in Aviation and OBAP if you can swing it. I'm sure recruiters will be at both of those events (usually March and August I think).
There's been a lot of numbers thrown around, but last I heard was 750+ in 2018.
Apply to every window, update your app regularly, and attend as many recruiting events as you can. They want to see that you want to work at SW.
Good luck!

No job fairs or recruiting events for SWA at all. Suddenly I got the email invitation and I'm coming up on a year at Southwest. It's been great but at some level it seems quite random.
