Have any calls gone out for the Sept. 21st class? Do we know how many are left in the pool, prior to the 8/25 interviews?

Does anyone know just how many pilots there tend to hire from the interview group? It seems from my search, there are 50 to 60 guys at a time interviewing at a time. Is there only a handful of guys that get hired from that or is most everyone?
Thanks guys.

Overheard in a crew room from someone that does the hiring. 38 of the 50 that interviewed in the last group made it to phase 2

There is no quota. If they deem everyone a good fit, they hire them all. If no one is a good fit, they hire no one. The interview is very fair, they even email you the gouge. Generally about 2/3 are successful in stage 1.

The appication window is open now. Good Luck.

I just interviewed recently and was not sent a gouge. Just paperwork to fill out

What sort of things prevent one from going to phase 2?

It was contained in the interview letter they sent you, about how the actual process would work on the interview day. It talked about the TMAT stories and how they needed to be specific.

Yes I do recall that. They weren't specific
Questions but yes I would agree the interview
Process does seem pretty fair with regard to what
To expect.

Start class on Sept 7th and interviewed on Aug 3rd. The interview is a very relaxing environment. In my time slot I believe we had about 9 candidates. All but 1 moved on to phase 2. I really couldn't tell you how the rest of the day went as far as who made it. Good luck.

How early to apply?

The appication window is open now. Good Luck.

Does anyone know how early you can apply? I won't be eligible to leave my current job until next spring/summer. Is now too early?

You didn't really expect the company interviewing you to give you their questions did you?

Look at the gouge on APC, and read Blue Streak , and know about JetBlue, their cores values, and why you want to work here. BE YOURSELF. They are looking for pilots that they can be in the cockpit with who are not D-bags. Getting to the interview is 80% of the hiring process, the job is yours to lose.
Good luck to everyone, you will be impressed by what you see here, I know I am.

Thanks for clarifying, Beach. 32 more 190's + 92 more 320's/321's = much more pilot hiring.

But as usual, they never let you know how many leases they will return or how many of the older 320's they plan to sell...:smash:

 

[BentOver]

100 before the end of the year. 250 next year is what they are telling everyone.

Just re-reading some past stuff....Is this pretty accurate in anyones' opinion? That's a really good pace of hiring !! Something to finally be excited about!!

That matches up with everything I have heard. 250-300 per year for the forseeable future.

That is very good news.. My dumb a$$ just ordered "Blue Streak" from Amazon..(it was only $.01 plus 3.99 shipping)

I ordered it not becasue I'm a cocky bastard who thinks he'll get hired immediately. But because sometime over the next year or so I am really hoping to get an interview given I think I'm pretty competative and the numbers are looking healthy for this to hopefully happen..maybe

There,now lemme rub that brown off my nose:laugh:

wasn't there a class today? What was the breakdown?
