jetBlue and hiring

[ATA For Now!]

Anyone know the plans over at jetBlue for hiring? Also, for those who have been called, what was the timeline from finishing the online app to getting an interview?

What kind of TT and TPIC did you have?

Any other info to share?

Thanks!

I was in the Q for about a year. I started updating my app every two weeks and was called about 2 months later. I was hired with 4300TT and 2000JetPic 4000PIC

I am not sure of the exact numbers for next year but I would guess about 250 and the following year will be a lot more.

Good Luck

How many pilots are there?
How many airplanes in the fleet?
How many E190s are coming?

On the new JetBlue application, where is lists the jobs I have applied for, it lists my status as "prequalification". Does that mean that I still have more of the application to fill out or does that mean my resume is in the system?

Thanks,

Was that PIC jet in an RJ? Did you have an internal rec? Just curious.

How many pilots are there? About 930 now
How many airplanes in the fleet? About 68
How many E190s are coming?

There are 230 total 320's and 200 190's scheduled to be here by 2011

No RJ time my jet PIC was in Citation X and 500 serries Citations.

I had one letter of recomendation from a JB Pilot

Bottom seniority number is 952. 14 E190's will be delivered in 2005, on top of the 15 A320's. Hiring will double next year (according to information provided in recurrent).

I would not get too excited about these numbers. December bids out with everyone moving backward. The number of 190s I thought was only 5 for next year with 15 A 320s. Hopfully this backward slide is only temporary.
