Hi, @Kaleo51 . In response to aircraft delivery delays and planned capacity reductions, we’ve made the difficult decision to suspend hiring for most non-contract roles. That said, we'll still hire for a small number of roles that are critical to our operation, which you can find and apply to on https://careers.southwestair.com/.    Keep an eye on your email inbox (and any junk/spam folders, just in case!) for updates and next steps for your Ops Agent application!    Thanks for your interest in a career with Heart!   ...

Hi there, @rehanarshad94!   Thank you so much for reaching out and for your interest in the Technology Jr Associate program allows Junior Associates the opportunity to apply their formal technology training in a professional setting while gaining additional skills, knowledge, and experience.    The requirements include completion of a formal Technology training program that includes coursework in programming languages (Java, HTML, CSS, SQL, AWS, CI/CD, Chrome Developer Tools, Cloud), cybersecurity, IT help desk, data, web development or other related technical studies. Your mentioned boot camp sounds like it would fit well in for that requirement!      ... View more

Hi there, @K8lyn! Thanks for reaching out!    I took a closer look at your Supervisor Flight Attendants Orlando, and it does look like your application was automatically removed from consideration based on your answers to the application questions - namely, to answering "No" to the "Do you have a High School Diploma, GED or equivalent education? (not all jobs require this)" question. Since the job description includes this as a requirement for the role, your answer removed your application from consideration. So sorry for any confusion (or any potential mis-clicking) there!  That said, I do see you have an active application for the Supervisor Flight Attendants Denver position! The application window for that just closed a couple days ago, and it looks like our Team is beginning to review applications. Fingers crossed our Team has the opportunity to connect with you - keep an eye on your email inbox (and any junk/spam folders - just in case) for any requests or next steps to come.   -Adrienne Southwest Community Moderator ...

Hi,  @katstaff  We apologize that this decision impacted your application.    Later this week, you’ll receive an email from Southwest Airlines (via swa@myworkday.com) notifying you of the official status change of your application. Your dashboard in your Candidate Home will update at this time as well.   We hope you’ll continue to consider a future career at Southwest Airlines.     ... View more

Howdy, @Kimia!   Thank you for reaching out! I'm so sorry for any confusion with with your application to the Jr. Technology Associate position, especially after you connected with our Careers Team at a recent event. While this position is a remote position, there are location requirements in place. The full workplace requirements are: This role is offered as a remote workplace position, which may require travel for training, meetings, conferences, etc. Outside of those required visits, the majority of your working time may be spent in a remote location, away from our Corporate Campus. Please note, while this is a remote position, there is a limited group of states or localities ineligible for Employees to regularly perform their work. Those ineligible locations are: Alaska, California, Colorado, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, Washington and Wyoming.   You answered "Yes, I do currently live in one of these states and am not willing to relocate." to the application question "Do you currently live in Alaska, California, Colorado, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, Washington and Wyoming?" This is what automatically removed your application from consideration.  ... View more

Howdy, @jvaline!   There's no set timeline as to when you'll hear back from our Careers Team, but we certainly appreciate your interest in joining the Colorado Springs Family! Keep an eye on your email inbox (and any junk/spam folders, just in case!) for an update just as soon as one is available.    Additionally, you can keep an eye on your application's status by logging in to your Candidate Home. If you don't already have an account or your application isn't showing up, check your application confirmation email for a unique link to create your profile. From there, you can monitor your application's status. 😊   Best of luck!  ... View more

Hey there, @AvMech89.    Thanks so much for reaching out and for your interest in joining our Southwest Family!  I took a look, and it appears you answered "No" to the application question, "If you are not a current resident of the state for which you are applying, would you be willing to relocate or commute at your own expense, including the shipping of your tools? (If you are CURRENTLY a resident of the state for which you are applying, please select “Yes”)"    Since this position is in Phoenix, the Team would need Candidates that currently are residents of Arizona or are willing to relocate for the role. As you indicated you were unwilling to relocate, this removed your application from consideration for this Phoenix role. I hope that helps to clear things up - so sorry for any confusion!  ...

Hey, @BreezeSchwenke!   Thanks for reaching out. I do see that you visited the Las Vegas Customer Service Agent - Part Time position on February 27, but we never received a complete application for you under that breezeschwenke@gmail.com email. So sorry for any confusion there! ... View more

Hey, @Divya12!   Thanks so much for your question and your interest in joining the Southwest Family!  I took a quick look, and our Careers Team sent you an email update on March 1 with additional information. The subject line of that email includes "An update on your Southwest Airlines job application" if that makes searching for the email easier!  ... View more

Hey, @CEvans!   Thanks for reaching out!  We don't auto disqualify Candidates for having more than one application active at a time. 😊 You're welcome to submit your application to multiple positions at Southwest!    Your automatic denial was likely due to the answers submitted on your application questionnaire. For example, not living in a certain state required for the position, not meeting the minimum education/experience requirement, having interviewed for the same position within the last 6 months, etc.    As for your Flight Attendant application, we are still reviewing, interviewing, and hiring Candidates from the September posting! We'll keep you updated via email on any changes to your application's status!  ... View more

Hey, @Mont718!    Southwest doesn't currently have flight/trip minimums!    To add on to what @Passenger1C mentioned, we don't post for part time openings for the Flight Attendant position. Should you apply and be hired, that would be for a full time Flight Attendant. Southwest's schedule flexibility allows for you to pick up and drop trips - that's how you might be able to work more or less than a "typical" full time Employee! 😊   Thanks for asking!  ...

Hey, @ShelbyWells1995!   Congratulations on receiving your Inflight Initial Training Class invite!

Typically, you'll receive a few days off and then you'll have assigned trips/reserve for the week after graduation! ... View more

Hey, @PMN!  Thanks so much for reaching out and for your interest in our Summer Internships! Please know that you're unable to reinstate your application after withdrawing from the position. Withdrawing yourself from the application process for this position doesn't affect future employment consideration for other Internships or other roles at Southwest Airlines.     ... View more

Hey, Timothy.    I am so sorry for your lack of answers - I wasn't able to find anything out either since my last message to you. Have you had any update? @Timothy_Gillis  ... View more

Hey, @apike2535!   Since there's not a way to modify your application after clicking submit, I'm afraid there's no way to correct your application or fix that incorrectly-selected box.  The only alternative would be to submit a new application with a secondary email address - be sure you are careful with those questionnaire answers the second time around!  ...

Hi again!    All security has been and would be set up internally! We've got an incredible Cybersecurity Team that has that all taken care of.    As far as working in a location other than your home, that would be a conversation best has with your Team Leader!
