Good evening, Have you heard from your recruiter on starting date, since completion of background and drug screening     ... View more

Hello! The remote position opened on 6/20 only for a few hours. After closing, it has not opened again.  ... View more

Hey there me too I'll be there 9/12 super excited!! 😀 ... View more

Southwest requires that you are available at all times, and that the job takes priority over whatever other activities you may be involved in. It seems that the trend is once you are certified, you’ll probably go to evenings/nights. Once you are certified though, you are able to trade and giveaway hours. Good luck with your situation. I would suggest you try to ride it out as long as possible.  ... View more

Thank you so much! Yes, patience is definitely key when applying at Southwest for sure. I'll never forget when I applied for the same position this January, I received an e-mail within two days from Caitlin Holliday to schedule a virtual interview. That was the first time that I'd had such an immediate response from them and the first time I ever interviewed with Southwest. My recruiter was nice enough to keep my resume for a year.   Yes you're so right about people waiting months for a response as well, that's how picky Southwest is. Thank you so much for your feedback!            ... View more

Hi I;m 9/12 also for CS&S WFH position. ... View more

Thanks so much.  Yes, they are taking a long time.  I have completed all the other steps with the other company, and I think I will get a Start Date soon.  I just did not want to mess my chances up of getting hired by Southwest in the Future, should I want to work for them at another time.   I did not know if I turn down the job, would that mess me up for future hiring,   The thing is I need a job NOW, and I have to go with whatever company has a solid confirmed job on the table for me. ...

Good day,      Thank you so much for your post.  I interviewed on July 12 and received contingent offer email on July 15.  I check emails and candidate page several times a day, but still have not  received emails to complete hiring process.  Under My tasks status still says in process.  I was thinking of reaching out to recruiter that interviewed me on Linkedin but not sure if that would seem as if  I'm being a little anxious and impatient.     Thanks again,    SMA  ...

Hello everyone. I know that candidates in Texas that submitted applications around 9:30 am received call screen invite emails today. I hope that helps. Good luck everyone! 💙💛❤️ ... View more

Funny thing is you’re the one attacking me and now I’M rude? Ok! Lucky for me you don’t know anything about me and weren’t my recruiter😊 ... View more

Are you referring to the remote position? If so, not sure how many have been hired but they are hiring close to 700. And yes they are still conducting interviews.  Keep in mind that some of these will not make it after receiving the CJO whether due to not passing background, failure of drug test or other circumstances so it's possible they will have back up candidates. It is going to take weeks if not a few months to conduct interviews and get background clearances, etc. There are 3 training classes which are Sept, Oct & Nov. so keep that in mind because I think some may not hear from a recruiter until late August and be placed in the Nov class (just my thoughts).  ...

It depends on the individual. Some people, the background check comes back within a week. Then there are others, like me, that I am coming up on 6 weeks now. It is entirely frustrating. ... View more

I’m also waiting for the next steps but, I barely did my ss# and DOB on 7/18/22. I’m excited to start & I hope I get the September class as well; hopefully I’ll be seeing you there!!! ... View more

Thank you! I joined the group. Looks like I won't have to be buying much.  ... View more

I received a conditional offer of employment on 7/12, I completed the first 4 tasks, however I haven’t received any additional emails for background check, drug screening or employment check. Any one have insight on how long it takes to receive those emails? ... View more

With Southwest, it's space available. There is no first class. Business class only refers to your boarding position. You'd get the same type of seat everyone else gets. Other airlines, it's also space available, so you get whatever is left, if any. Depending on the agreement, we have to pay taxes and fees, so it's not completely free. You cannot specify a fare class unless you buy a ticket. This will all be covered during training. Dont worry! 😉 Focus on those city codes. 😀  ... View more

Yuck! You aren't alone though. Start reading through some post on this board CS&S from the last couple of weeks. If the post has a green check mark that means there was solution solved. Try to find similar situations close to yours and reach out to poster to see if they have ideas how to help. Good luck, I'm sorry that happened.  ... View more
