Yes. Put it 3 months away from date of update.

Not trying to question you, but just wanting to verify you are serious before I change it.

Trying to compile hiring trends in the current environment means paying attention to when a candidate could potentially start with the company. It's probably the most important factor to getting a job if you meet the minimums.


My availability is a 2 weeks notice.

I checked my application status on SWA careers website. I noticed my "received submission" changed to a "Resume under review" and the withdraw button disappeared. Not sure what that means.... if anything.

A buddy of mine showed my what his stuff looked like after he interviewed but before he got the offer. His said "resume under review" if I remember correctly. Looks like you might be getting an interview soon!

Thanks for the input, It's encouraging. Still early to get my hopes up. I guess time will tell.

Is there a particular time of the month when invites go out? I have noticed or it seems like invites go out the first Wednesdays and Thursdays of the month...
