Hey, @Johamarie!   Thanks so much for reaching out! Our Careers Team has begun reviewing applications, and i'm hopeful they'll have an update to share soon. There were many applications received for that Aircraft Records Specialist opportunity, and we appreciate your patience as our Team reviews!    Best of luck!  ... View more

Hey there, @OO7Goofy!    Thanks so much for reaching out! I took a look, and your application was removed from consideration due to answering "no" to the question "Do you currently possess a valid/unrestricted Driver’s License issued in the United States? (suspended, expired, revoked, or denied are not considered valid)". Since this is a requirement of the role you applied to, your application was removed from the process. So sorry for any confusion there!    That particular role posts each month, on the 7th. It's open through the 21st of each month! If that answer was clicked by accident, you can submit your application come January 7th to be back in consideration!  ... View more

Hey, @Nashyrah  Thanks so much for reaching out! And thank you for your interest in joining our Nashville Family! It looks like our Recruiting Team is still working to finalize decisions & dates for new Cohearts in Nashville to start. That said, you can be sure our Teams will give plenty of time to notify current employers and prepare for day one!    Fingers crossed that you hear an update very soon!  ... View more

Hi there, @wynonajaner!   Thanks so much for asking! While many roles at Southwest are offered as a "remote" workplace option, those would still need to be located within certain states in the US. Each posting should outline the states in which Employees would be eligible to work from!  ... View more

Hi there, @zxcvb531!   Thanks for reaching out and for your interest in a career with Heart! I'm glad to offer some additional context on the message you received. Since we reviewed applications in the order received, we're not always able to review all applications in order to fill an opportunity. I'm sorry that your application was one that we just weren't able to get to this time around.   My recommendations in those case are to always fine-tune your resume specifically to the job you're applying for, do some research on Southwest and how the role you're applying for impacts our Company Vision, and get your application in ASAP! Often times, we receive more applications than we're able to review. This means that the earlier your application is submitted, the more likely we'll be able to get to it in the initial review process -- sometimes we can even receive enough applications to review within those first 20 hours.    Still, we'd love to meet and get to know you better for another opportunity that fits your career goals in the future! Keep an eye out for the next time this position posts or for other opportunities at careers.southwestair.com - we post new positions almost daily!  ... View more

Hey, @chlozek!    Thank you so much for reaching out & for your interest in joining our Southwest Family as a Flight Attendant. I'm so sorry to learn of the confusion surrounding your application, and I'm glad to offer some clarification.    When you withdrew your application, that removed you from consideration for the Flight Attendant opportunity. There's not a way to "undo" that withdrawing, and I regret the confusion caused by the One-Way Interview invitation that was sent to you on accident. That interview submission will not be reviewed or considered for this opportunity, since your application was already removed. I apologize if that's not the answer you were hoping to hear.    That said, please know that withdrawing yourself from the application process for this position doesn't affect future employment consideration for the Flight Attendant position or other roles at Southwest Airlines. We'd love to receive your application again when this opportunity opens up in the future!  ... View more

So sorry for the delayed response, @Meka3207, especially as you were waiting to hear back on your Lead Accounts Payable Representative application. I took a quick look, and there were so many great Candidates who submitted their interest for that opportunity - yourself included! Our Team carefully reviewed applications, and it looks like an update went out this morning. Keep an eye on your email inbox for that update!    You have our apologies that the wait was longer than you (or we) would hope for, and we appreciate your patience throughout.  Thank you so much for your interest in a career with Heart!  ...

Hey, @mm2000!   Congrats on your contingent job offer! We truly appreciate your patience and diligence throughout the Employment Screening process. I know the wait can be stressful, especially as that process can take up to 6 weeks to finalize - although, we typically see folks complete the necessary steps within 4 weeks. It sounds like you've completed everything on your end, and now it's just time to wait and keep an eye on your email inbox for an update soon!    Hang in there!  ... View more

Anytime! Best of luck! 💙❤️💛 ... View more

Happy to help, @Nicolegunia!   In Chicago, for both our O'Hare and Midway stations, there are plenty of opportunities that become available throughout the year! Maybe something similar that piques your interest could be your perfect match! I know opportunities in Station Services, as Ramp or Customer Service Supervisors, or many other roles can be great learning opportunities to grow and develop. 😊 ... View more

Hey, @hlyngibbs609!    So sorry for any confusion there! I took a quick look, and it looks like our Recruiting Team followed up with a more insightful second email shortly after you received this one - that should help a bit!    Ultimately, we received more applications than we were able to review for this position - it received a *ton* of interest. As such, your application was one that we just weren't able to get to this time around. I'm so sorry to share that with you.    Still, we'd love to meet and get to know you better for another opportunity that fits your career goals in the future! Keep an eye out for the next time this MDW Customer Service Agent posts or for other opportunities at careers.southwestair.com - we post new positions almost daily!  ... View more

Hi there, @Nicolegunia. Thanks so much for reaching out!    We weren't able to move forward with your application due to the response on your application questionnaire! For the question "Do you have two years experience in airport operations?", you answered "No." This experience was a requirement for Candidates, so your application was automatically removed when this response was received.  I hope this helps bring some clarity to your recent application, despite any disappointment that may have occurred. We certainly appreciate your interest in a career with Heart! ... View more

Hi, all!    So sorry for the delayed reply! I gave some additional insight into this question on Jobseeker's other, related thread here: https://community.southwest.com/t5/Southwest-Careers/Direct-College-Hire-Recruiting-Timeline/m-p/166133#M15222   Thanks for making sure I was tagged in, @dfwskier!

Hey, @jobseeker!   I am *so* sorry it's taken so long to get back to your message - I really appreciate you tagging me!    Looking through your other posts, I'm sorry to learn of the update to your application's status. The Direct College Hire brings some incredible People to Southwest, and we appreciate your involvement with the program!    With those more entry level positions, the competition can be fierce to land the role. My recommendations in those case are to always fine-tune your resume specifically to the job you're applying for, do some research on Southwest and how the role you're applying for impacts our Company Vision, and get your application in ASAP! Often times, we receive more applications than we're able to review. This means that the earlier your application is submitted, the more likely we'll be able to get to it in the initial review process.    That said, I'm so sorry if the communication surrounding your application and status throughout the process was lacking. We work to provide helpful updates often, especially since we know how important that is to our Candidates. If you wouldn't mind providing the email address associated with your application or the requisition number (R-2023-_____), I would love to pass this feedback along to the Team overseeing those DCH applications. I'd be glad to take a closer look at your application then as well, just to see if there's any additional insight I can offer!    Thanks again for your time reaching out & tagging me! Hope you had a great holiday weekend, @jobseeker! ... View more

Hey there, @Briangarraty79.    So sorry for any disappointment with your application being removed from consideration for the Communications Summer 2024 Internships posting. Since your application was automatically removed due to the answer provided when applying, Regrettably, there isn't a way to modify your answer or change the status of your application at this point.  If you feel that you answered the question incorrectly, you might try submitting your application again - you may have to use a different email address to do so.  ...

Hey, @Bluebeard64!   So sorry for the confusion surrounding your application to the Flight Attendant (R-2023-18425)! I hope you've hear back from our Teams by now, but that email removing you from the process was in error. Because you applied to both the January 2023 and September 2023 Flight Attendant postings, there were some crossed wires happening behind the scenes, but that is all resolved now.  We're excited to meet you soon!  ...

Hey, @chrisdamron!   Thanks so much for reaching out and for your interest in joining our Technology Family! I took a quick look, and your answer to the question "Do you have entry-level experience; developing skills and knowledge in developing, implementing, or integrating technologies for Enterprise security?" is what removed your application from consideration. You indicated "no," and this experience was a requirement. I'm so sorry for any confusion or disappointment!  ... View more
