This blog perfectly highlights the value of combining a Cadet Program with a 4-year degree. It’s impressive how this dual approach sets up cadets for both immediate and long-term success. My name is David, and I'm interested in your content writing services. I'm now searching for help with my website, Cheap Tow Truck in Queens. I want you to produce articles and blogs about it that provide value to people so that search engines would rank me higher on their SERP. Can you do something about it?   ... View more

I agree those with real disability need to board.  I’m 62, spinal fusion in 2 places. Paid to be placement 1 and there are right now 11 wheelchairs.. of which 5 are empty as the people in them just got up and walked with no problem down the terminal to grab something to eat..  people have no shame abusing the system then just smirk at you once they take all the front seats ...

The situation that you described sounds like this passenger/Spirit employee was traveling on a confirmed ticket purchased by their employer.  Other airlines often purchase SWA Business Select fare tickets to ‘deadhead’ their employees to their destination for work purposes.  ... View more

@ktoton   This information is listed on SW’s career faq page:  I accidentally answered a question incorrectly and it knocked me out of consideration. Can I go back and change it? Unfortunately, once an application is submitted, we’re unable to make changes.

@Texas512  sending you good interviewing vibes. Good luck to you!  ... View more

I know that companies usually send an email first to set up a call time that works for you. If you're not sure about a number that's been calling you, you could try using a reverse phone lookup like who called me to see who it is. This way, you won't miss any important calls and will know who's trying to reach you. ... View more

Good morning, @Mmhmm212!   Thank you so much for reaching out and for your interest in Southwest as a prospective employer! I took a closer look at your application for the role in on our Internal Audit Team, and I'm so sorry for the lack of updates. It does appear that our Recruiting Team is still working to finalize who will be moving forward, and I'm hopeful they'll have that determined this week. Once there's more information to share, our Team will reach out to you ASAP.  Thank you so much for your continued patience.    Thanks, @Passenger1C, for the tag! Always appreciate you!    - Adrienne, Community Moderator  ... View more

Hey there, @PrestonW!   Apologies for the delay in answering this one - I appreciate your interest in our Internship program! Our Campus Reach Team oversees Southwest's internships, and they work with Teams throughout the Company to identify which Teams are open to hosting an Intern, the responsibilities of an Intern on those Teams, and the full details of what a Spring Internship with Southwest would look for them. This conversations are ongoing now, to be shared and open for applications September 1 – September 15, 2024. In short, we aren't ready to share those position details just yet, but we'd encourage you to logon September 1 to find out & see is anything is of interest to you!    I hope that helps!  ...

Awful flight experience. I would also be frustrated if I was on this flight. I wonder what happened and why the passenger was allowed to board again?  I’m sure the FA’s were not pleased either.  ... View more

Hi, @MonrizaMalavega and @Passenger1C! Happy Wednesday!    When you submit your application, you receive a confirmation email to the email you provided. Within that confirmation email, you should have a unique link to follow & create a Candidate Profile - if you haven't already. I'd suggest pulling up that application confirmation and setting up your Candidate Profile that way. In your Candidate Profile, you'll be able to see the status of this application and any others you submit! 😊   Thank you for asking & for tagging me to help!  ... View more

@ask720  I do not think SW does FA job shadowing. Have you looked into an outside school that prepares hopeful future FA’s with the skills to land the job?   ... View more

@gdawson  Congratulations! I found this information for flight attendants, but might be a good start answering your questions until you can ask a recruiter:   https://assets.phenompeople.com/CareerConnectResources/prod/SOUTUS/documents/ExternalFlightAttendantFAQs_May2024-1715887503837.pdf?utm_source=careersite&utm_medium=051624&utm_campaign=FAexternalFAQs ...

If your dashboard currently “shows In process”, that’s a good thing. Try to practice patience, and I’m sure will hear something soon.  ... View more

"only sell earlybird for the A boarding position. There is no way to do that because there is no way to know how many A-Listers will grab A spots until 36 hours before the flight. You could have A50-A60 available and then 10 A Listers buy tickets and grab them.   EBCI only guarantees 2 things: 1) you don't need to worry about checking in at t-24 hours 2) You will get a better boarding position than everyone that checks in manually.   That's it. ...

Agree with @dfwskier .  Assuming you did receive a job offer, that conversation should happen until you are hired. I would not make any big decisions based off of a phone screen.  ... View more
