@Kellyd what is the status of your FA application on your dashboard?  I would start there first, then start to ask questions.    What is your career interest with SW since you applied for another job?  Practice patience and be careful about applying for more than one position since you have not heard anything. You don’t want to give the wrong impression that you are just applying to anything. Be passionate about one position at a time and show your interest.    Good luck!    ... View more

Thank you for stating there could be up to six months for the in-person interview.   It was encouraging.  I am eagerly and patiently awaiting the next step in proccess.  Go Southwest! ... View more

Oh, Keith! I'm so sorry to hear that. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors, and I hope to see you applying again when it opens up next!  ... View more

I am going to be honest here and this is a bit long. Your hair does look unkempt. It is possible for long hair to look neat, but usually when it is tied back or the man happens to have straight hair. Where the honesty comes in. 1) When you are working, I am willing to bet that the hair you have now will be acceptable to management, though the barely beard may need to be grown or, kept perfictly trimmed or go completely. It looks like you dont care about your appearance too much right now. I mean to say that while some may complain about not being accepted "as they are", because everybody is different, communities negotiate naturally, an accepted common look that looks healthy and dependable to that culture, and companies that need customer service want to work within that accepted norm with a deviation that is dependent on the companies goals.   Now, while on the job looks are a little more flexible, you really need to understand the purpose of the interview. Especially for customer service jobs of companies that have a high standard.  The interviewer doesnt want to see how you look or act on an average day. They want to see you at your best, to show that you can step up to the standards they ask of you. You need to show them how much you really want the job compared to everybody else by putting your full effort into it, from speech, to body language, to looks. If you think your average is your best, then you are competing with everybody else at a disadvantage because others will be bringing their best. Interviews are a competition. Once you have the job, you worry about doing your job, but you have to get the job first. ... View more

No worries @Christyplagge... i am not the best at navigating this community site and it takes me some time to find things again. I have experienced the SWA emails (unrelated to FA info) and the brief excitement thinking this might be it. But I’ll maintain patience and a warrior spirit until fruition. I did notice my application is “under review” (and has been since 2/6) so I’m taking it as good. Weekend was good... i served as security for the women’s Pursue the Passion conference today... good speaker... good message. Hope you hear good news soon! Will look forward to meeting you one day should we both experience the blessing. ... View more

Thank you @KimVanderKley... i enjoy the community as well... several people (like yourself) have been helpful and encouraging. I like building relationships and, should things are meant to be in our favor, I’ll look forward to serving with you and others that are in the community. Wishing you the best! ... View more

Also waiting along with both of you.  #warriorspirit @KeithPitmanwrote: LUV your spirit (and faith!) @Christyplagge! I’m there waiting alongside you! Best wishes and i hope you hear something soon (and for me as well)! I have been reading through many (many many) posts as well.   ... View more

@Christyplagge @KeithPitman I'm right there with both of you. Like Keith said, it does build character. Good things come to those who wait, and those of us "hopefuls" have to trust the recruiters and members of the hiring team. Good luck to you both, and to everyone who has applied. 😊😊❤❤✈✈ Tracy Thatcher  ... View more

Hi @NADOWD,   That is great to hear! We are still seeing quite a delay in the emails, so don't be alarmed if you still don't see one immediately. It sounds like you are in good shape!   ... View more
