Hi @Sandic, Thanks for your interest in a Career at Southwest Airlines! In general, the Employment Screening Team must be able to verify where our applicants have been and what they’ve been doing for the past five years. The application should include every job (legal employment) held within the past five years, including full time, part time, and occasional positions. Any jobs discovered during the employment screening process that were not disclosed in the application could create a delay in the process and/or result in reconsideration of the offer. Each previous and current job must be verifiable through either direct contact with an appropriate and current representative of the company (written or verbal, and also includes the use of verification services such as The Work Number), and/or through the use of applicant-provided documentation. All verifications must provide a basis for ascertaining the regularity, or frequency, of actual business activity throughout the entire time period claimed in the application for each particular employer, and must also support the information discussed in the interview. In cases of self-employment, where there may not be an appropriate and current representative of the company other than the applicant, we may need to rely solely on applicant-provided documentation, the standards for which will be the same as for all other verification. I hope this helps to answer your question, and wish you the best of luck throughout the application process!
