B6 Application window open February 11th for 7 days only

[Smarta$$]

E190 or A320's ?

I believe it is 7 E90, 3 A320 and 4 A321.

But with FO's moving from E90-A320 and some going A320-E90, it can't be predicted with any certainty what you will get in class.

Why only 7 days?

Because it creates a false sense of exclusivity.

 

[Splert]

Yes, age.

It used to be the opposite. Lipstick on your ears was the sure sign of an A320 award?

Um, OK. Says you, who never as ANYTHING but dramatic negativity coming out of your keyboard. If that were the case, then the window would have to open more often to get the applications they need.

You answered your own question. Didn't need that many new hires in the past or in the near future.

2 years ago "sources" said 400 new hires and turns out there were no where near that number hired. 150 to 250 new hire in 2013, sure! Net growth in the past 5 years has never matched deliveries. I bet in 2013 we hire less than 75. Unless the real majors start to hire in mass or AA hits the bottom and starts it's way back up the list at the end of the year.

The 7 day window is simply a gimmick. Nothing more.

I bet if I checked you have trolled every single Jetblue thread over the past 2 year or longer. Why is that? Is Jetblue your Girlfriend, Manti or are you in a cubical?

This post is a joke. We have already nearly hired 75 this year, with more classes scheduled. The rest of your post is just as accurate.

COO in his conference call a week ago said 75 for the year and maybe 40 maybe for 117. Rob is a joke too? Classes are scheduled in the sense they are on the schedule and that means nothing in terms of actual hiring.

Do you always fly to the Alternate because it is planned on the release?

Still trolling Manti!

 

[Splert]

edit: 87 by July and maybe 40 for 117.

The remainder is for attrition if it happens.

Sounds like management needs to get on the same page since Sandy said 150 in his e-mail.

More interviews tomorrow, too, and that's ahead of the application window opening.

There are lots of FACTS there for your review.

This is a good job I enjoy coming to work here. I am absolutely terrified that any one of my family members could suffer from and injury or illness that will bankrupt us.

Do your own research and decide if a career here is what is good for you or your family. There will be LOTS of hiring occuring soon and the retirement numbers at the legacies dont lie. We have less than 10 retirements over the next 3 years

Also remember that your previous regional job SUCKED and the chemical makeup in your brain has convinced you that life was okay there. The shiny new jet and blue shirt will release a mass buildup of endorphins. That goes away bafter 10-15 years of slinging gear here.

So we have hired 75 since Jan 1?

Are newhires being type-rated in the RJ or A320? I'm thinking if it's worth applying or not and then going elsewhere.

 

[MikeSF340]

You are NOT typed.

 

[clickclickboom]

SIC type rating

 

[skidbuggy]

Thanks...

I'll keep looking then. Good luck to those who choose Jetblue.

I believe Spirit and Virgin America both give PIC types for newhires, good luck

 

[Flyer1015]

Whoa, JetBlue doesn't type you? Is this for both the E190 and A320? Both SIC only? Yes, as of right now, both Spirit and VX give PIC types for newhires.

 

[rjpilot7667]

Correct. No type rating either aircraft till upgrade.
