United Pilot Application Question
 
I have been picking away at the application all week and just finished. I feel like I saw a link to upload a resume and cover letter but skipped by it at the time so I could polish it up a little. I have spent the last hour looking for the link to upload the resume with no luck. Does anyone have some guidance for me, or was I imagining things and there is actually no place to upload the resume? Thank you for the help...

Unless, it was something recently added, I do not believe you can upload resumes or cover letters. As far as I know, you can only upload LORs.

you absolutely can upload resumes, if you can no longer access your application, you’ll have the opportunity to append/update when you get an invite. The lack of a resume now “shouldn’t” be a factor to get an invite as long as you’re competitive.

Then, I stand corrected. How do you do that?

Application question
 
Working on the application.
They ask about any driving violations.. yes, I had 2 speeding tickets. One in 1994. One in 1995.
The dates?? Damned the hell if I could tell you; one was definitely spring, one was definitely fall.. but they want the dates... do I select a date and in the comments, say it's not an exact date?? Or call the police jurisdictions?? I suspect if I asked for details of a ticket fro 30 years ago, there will be silence on the other end of the line.

Can you request your own driving record online on the DMV website?

After selecting a date it will actually only publish the month and year. Just pick a mid spring month for the first and a mid fall month for the other. Then, as you stated, just make a notation that the date is an approximation. Nobody will bat an eye after your background check is complete.

Two speeding tickets 30 years ago with approximate dates won’t be seen as a gateway to drugs, homicide and sociopathic lying.

Most state DMV records will only go back about five years or so. If the poster knows the county in which he received the citations he could dig and check court records online. (but even that may have already been purged of petty offenses from decades ago.)

wait longer? Have your app reviewed in the meantime?

it’s holiday season right now and your availability date is 6+ months. People use to wait years/decades for a call. Chill.
