I don't see any of those for Oct in DFW. I think maybe you mean they were invited for the MIA on in Jan? If you click on that link on the job fair page, it says they have been invited but not confirmed. Easy mistake though really… unless I am missing it, which is entire possible.

I got excited for a second too!

Sorry. My bad. Looks like they are attending the Florida Tech job fair this month though.

Thanks again.
We've been told that the Oct. 2 class is the last for this year and that hiring will resume maybe mid summer next year.

I heard through the grapevine very recently to expect 300 new hires starting next summer. Then an additional 500 in 2016. Valid source.

Hi again. Any word on the app window opening and when interviews might start happening again for next summer? Are there any left in the pool?

737 type is booked. I want in! Better having it ahead of time me thinks.

SWA is finishing up with the AirTran conversions in March of '15. New Hire classes should be starting after that. I would back up a month or two to conduct interviews and a month or two for the application window. Considering that WAG, you're looking at anywhere between Nov and Feb for the window to open. Until then, make sure everything is squared away.
