What i always wonder is this whole not even getting an interview ! it's not like there's a million of us ! (i'd assume you'd interview as much as you can and grab the best) but people with 2 to 12 months of experience with several diversions for fueling/missed alts/drag penalties not applied,or clueless of how many engines a787 has {true stories} ...still getting interviews (and being hired ...looking at you UA)
| while 2/3/4/5/6 years experienced ones not even being considered for interview !

AS gets 300+ applicants every time they open a hiring window. You can't interview everyone.

Thats the thing. What exactly are these airlines looking for in applications? Some people get called the next day and other are waiting for months with no communication. I've seen people get hired at a major with barely any experience, but the people that actually have every single qualification they are asking for and more can't even get an interview.

An unfortunate truth is that an awful lot is simply luck. Connections help, as well. This goes for all the major US airlines.
