@Jeverett  According to SWA’s career FAQ:   We love that you’re excited to hear from Southwest. Unfortunately, we’re unable to provide individual updates; however, your application status is on your dashboard. Once we’ve filled the position, the job status will change to “closed.” “Under Review” means we’re still in the process of reviewing candidates. Please be assured all applications submitted online are carefully reviewed by our Recruiting Team, but we do receive a high volume of applications. Only the most competitive applicants will be contacted for an interview.     ... View more

Great questions! There are some positions we open for applications to just External Candidates, some to just Internal Candidates, and some that are open to both at the same time! We still review those applications in the order received - reviewing internal applications in the order received and then external applications in the order received. So, there are times where we'll fill an opening with an Internal Candidate before we get to reviewing those External Candidates. There's not a "set" amount of Candidates we review each time we open up a position. Thank you so much for your great questions and interest! ... View more

@DancingDavidE wrote: @   4) book it as point-to-point - i.e. book MHT to BWI or MDW and then from there to LIT.      I forgot  about that option. Since were talking two small stations with a limited number of direct/nonstop flights, the OP is likely running in to Southwest's "no more than one plane change per trip" rule.   If OP does  try to book point to point, doing so as a multi city trip normally saves a few bucks in reduced taxes.   ...

I would suggest at least business casual. The “dress for the the job you want” line applies. An FA usually has a uniform, but they look ‘put together’. Wear something that makes you feel like you deserve the job.   take a deep breath, you got this! 💙❤️💛 ... View more

Hi, from what I see on the FAQs, as long as it’s not for the same job posting, you should be able to apply once you have your turbine time. SWA has a Pilot Credentials website to track your flight hours and credentials. Safe skies! ... View more
