Thanks for posting this.

 

There are lots of questions about how long the process takes. Your post will likely help those with the same question in the future.

Hi 

I have a contingent offer also., for the January 17th class. I have completed my drug test and fingerprints. Now I am waiting on a response from that. Not sure what happens next. Southwest ask what training location I wanted. I chose Atlanta, later changed to PHX.

 

Any thoughts? I am very excited, I have been in the travel industry 17+ years.

Looks like we are in the same position with class starting Jan 17th.  My preference was Phoenix as well.  I have all my stuff done as well.  I think they hired a lot of us so I am sure it’s hard to get it done.  I am just assuming I start January 17 th and preparing for that.  Put my notice in at work but told them my date may change if needed.

 

Hope to meet you in January!
