Is this the same as it always has been were SW says we have 5000 applicants but it's the same who've applied to every other airlines? |
Assuming competitive mins for this application window mirror legacies (4K TT / 1K TPIC), what % out of the estimated 5K applications do you see meeting this criteria? I have been flying with several FO's at my current carrier that said they applied, but do not have time anywhere near the above?

The number wouldn’t surprise me based on the current hiring environment. I assume every applicant applying in this timeframe would have apps in at all the majors.

No assumptions can be made about what is competitive. They will interview the most qualified to least qualified until they fill all the open spots. |
I’m in contact with an applicant that exceeds all the requirements, has 10K+ hours, military and federal job history, masters degree, CFI, etc. So there’s at least one!

I agree. Especially since WN apparently pulled some new hires out of class recently (allegedly—someone will have to confirm it).
