Narrative:
Advised after the fact that I was not configured prior to 1;000 feet. I'd mistakenly thought that was to be done by 500 feet. Reviewed fom and discussed captain not calling the go-around at the gate.I turned too close to the FAF and was trying to keep my speed up thinking someone was right behind us. There wasn't. I also inadvertently left power in on glideslope capture; so was behind and trying to catch up.fly your reserves more. I have been picking up trips to try to stay proficient; being new to company procedures. I won't make this mistake again; but am missing flying to stay at the 110% needed to do this job.
