Did they give you a choice of dates? Tell us more! I got the email, so of course I am dying to know what to expect.

I'm a lurker on this sub forum, but I must say, all of you sound very well qualified. I think it's a shame y'all haven't been snapped up yet, but I think it's going to happen. Maybe not as quick as you would've liked, but it will happen.
When the gates open--and they're going to open--you'll have more offers than you can shake a stick at.
Good luck!

I remember the process you all are going through very well and all the emotions that go with it!!
Good luck to you guys.

Yeah, I think that's killing me, but who knows. Not the recency, but the "perfect" record. I had a DWI back in 1989 and have been squeaky clean since. I grimace every time I have to check the "yes" box for a DWI, but...

To show how weird this industry was and is, I left the USAF in 1991 with barely 1,500 hours of .mil time, all fighters, and was hired by AA right off. Other military guys in my class had anywhere between 1,000 and 1,500 hours, with heavy drivers having more... the typical 7 to 9 year military career.
What makes a candidate "acceptable" seems to vary with supply and demand. I hope it's not the DWI that's holding you back. That sucks. For 90% of us, it's just dumb luck we didn't pick one up in our young and stupid days.

I threw this out in the "Hiring News" section, but it didn't get much traction. Did any of the folks who got the call/email answer "yes" to this question on United addendum in Airlineapps (question 16)?:
16. Have you:
A) Ever been convicted or is there now pending against you a misdemeanor or felony (civil or military charge);
B) Received deferred adjudication (even if your case was later dismissed);
C) Been part of any sort of diversion program in lieu of a conviction (even if your case was later dismissed);
OR
D) Paid a fine/ performed community service/ served any jail time?
I answered "yes" because I had paid a fine on a speeding ticket (no other reason). Now, I'm thinking this likely DQed me from the early round of interviews. Thoughts?
