Application taken off list

After applying to be a Southwest Flight Attendant, i got an email saying I was taken off the list since I did not send in my vaccination status. Now I am seeing it is no longer mandatory for the employees to be vaccinated, so is there a way i can get put back on the list? Having a hard time finding answers on this, so thanks in advance!

Southwest has dropped the requirement for current  employees.

 

It may not have done so for potential new employees.

I'm not sure where you are seeing that vaccination is no longer a requirement for employees.  While Gary Kelly said no one would be fired because of it, it is still a requirement and it is currently unclear what will happen to employees who fail to get vaccinated or seek a religious/medical exemption.  There's no reason they would hire someone who just didn't want to get vaccinated and didn't have a religious or medical exemption, that would just add to the problem of figuring out what to do with that group of people.
