The atmosphere actually felt pretty electric. I was the later start group for the day. They start by taking you on a tour of their facilities, and theyâ??re very lighthearted and humorous. You can see their culture that they advertise is really present. The tour and presentation took about an hour and a half. At that point, we all went into the people room, and we pulled aside one at a time for either a logbook review, SBQ, or interview. The logbook review was pretty relaxed, theyâ??ll...

As advertised in other posts on here. SBQ/Logbook/HRâ?¦no gotcha questions. Review the questions in the study guide and have some of your own stories to answer each. Itâ??s easiest to pair common theme questions with your stories. If there is something negative in your record, and address it with lessons learned then move on. Overall great...

I was in the afternoon group. Everything was exactly what this website says. Start off with a tour of the campus where you had plenty of time to ask any questions you wanted and they try to sell Southwest to you. After the tour they bring you in the room and bring everybody in one by one for each one of the three sections. I was given the scenario for fuel contamination. They lay out a couple maps in front of you and allow you to take notes if youâ??d like. I was the acting captain and...

The entire day was a wonderful experience, but very competitive. The tour of the facility was amazing and thorough. Interviewers were very kind. Very similar to examples written on here. They are interviewing a ton of applicants, but if selected for an interview, you are there for a reason! Good...

Fantastic experience at the SWA interview, it was exactly as expected. I submitted my app on the second to last day of the app window, received next steps email within 2 days. Submitted all items that night (make sure you complete ALL of it, including attaching something to all 3 slots of the LOR section otherwise they will not process it), got the email for an interview the next day. They flew me down the day prior on a SWA flight of my choice, I paid for my own hotel. Morning of, hotel...

The interview day was straightforward as stated throughout other reviews. Logbook was pretty easy, I was careful to follow all instructions. The SBQ was pretty laid back for me. I was given a wheel well fire, I ran the checklist, notified 2 in and 2 out, fire notification would not extinguish. I declared an emergency and diverted to the closest field with services. The panel interview went well, but they seem to be trying to reword the questions. Also the first officer on the panel seemed to...

I was in the first morning interview group, so I stayed at one of the recommended hotels. They have shuttle service and know the routine for SWA interviews. The shuttle can get crowded, but one of the people I met the day before had a car and offered me a ride. Be on the lookout for an email to print with a bar code the day before your interview to check in at HQ Met at the headquarters with 30 other pilots in the lobby and checked in with security. They have a bag storage room that will get...

I was in PM group, 21 of us total in that group. It was exactly like what everyone has already said. Excellent experience overall. Review the questions and sbq scenarios is my best suggestion. We were told we would hear back in 7-21 days. Phone call if an offer is being made, email if...
