From what I gather obviously when you apply to an requisition number, your status is Submission received. I "think" when they view it, it goes into application under review. Then it goes into one other status before closed complete.

My real concern is just that, if i'm applying and submitting the very informal information asked in the application (legal to work in the US? Meet our requirements? etc).... its easy to see if you meet everything or not. Since I do, why isn't my application at least being reviewed before the next requisition goes out?

It doesn't make sense. So, like I said. This career fair is nothing more than a "come check out the building and have us look at your pilotcredentials profile." So, I remain skeptical at the true value of going to it. But, at least I can have these questions answered.

I have an application to an older requisition number that still to this day says "Submission Received" with the option to withdraw the application. But the most recent requisition says "Under Review" with no option to withdraw. Progress, I guess! But not sure why older applications wouldn't ever show as Under Review or at least as Closed Complete once a newer requisition is opened.

Interesting. I've applied/reapplied during the last 3 open windows and I get the initial system-generated reply saying "thanks we've received it" but I've never gotten a TBNT email when the window closes.

Not sure when they purge, but I applied in the window in July '16 and got an invite in January. I continually updated pilot credentials, but never re-applied in a new window.

I've never paid much attention to my status on the ICMS page until reading this. Right now it says "submission received". Is that their way of saying "thanks but no thanks"?

No, it's normal when you apply

I am trying to figure out if the recruitment event is worth me going. I got a ticket to the afternoon slot. Little background info, My time is all corporate (Part 91 and 125) around 4400TT. I will have around 950 TPIC when I would show up to the event, obviously this is short of their requirements. I understand these are low times compared to what I have seen people be hired with lately.

One other reason I wanted to go was to talk to recruiters about coming straight from corporate to SWA.

What do you think about going?

If you don't go, you'll only end up asking yourself more questions. Do you fly enough that it's only a short matter of time before you have the 1000 TPIC? I know for some 91 outfits, that could be 6 months worth of flying! If you don't go, I know someone who would like your ticket...

I'd go. I doubt the 1000 PICT is very long for this world, and as the shortage deepens your TT will become more and more competitive.
