Next open house for JetBlue?

[NoJoy]

Dave's kid do you work for Blue? How did you find out about the open house? Thanks for taking the time to post this info-

 

[Dave's kid]

Yes, I work for JetBlue. I just looked on our pilot recruitment site and it had all the information.

No problem on the info, I'm glad it helps.

Just as a heads up! Take more than one resume. I went in April and went through 4. Just my 2 cents.

Take everything treat it like an interview.

Take everything treat it like an interview.

I'd second that, with the one caveat of don't worry about wearing a suit. Most people wear business casual. That's perfectly fine and not some kind of trick. If you wear a suit you won't be discriminated against, but you won't have any kind of advantage and besides, there's no good reason to. Wear business casual, bring resumes and enjoy the tour.

I agree. No hidden agenda. Just be yourself. They screen for the atributes, hire for the attitude.

Is this really true or is it 'unofficially' extpected that we show up in suit w/ blue tie???

If you really want to stick out, wear a bright yellow shirt. You'll see every shade of blue when you go there. But definatley keep it casual.

Definately bring all of your stuff. I don't think that they have interviewed at the last few open houses, but when I did it, by the time I was done I had been interviewed, drug tested, finger printed, and signed back ground release forms. So it can happen. Job offer 8 days later and in class two weeks later. That was earlier this Spring. Definately a great experience and worth the effort for going down to MCO for the open house. Good luck!

Oh, and definatley bring at least 3-4 copies of your resume.

Good for you! I went to the last one, and didn't get called. Maybe because i'm a sim instructor now? we have to take checkrides too, and are as current as everyone else. They seemed to like me when I was there. Oh well, i'll try again on the 19th. Heck, I live down the street from the facility.

who is better Jetblue or Southwest? If you had to pick????

 

[Dave's kid]

I had the chance to go to either one and chose JetBlue. I don't regret the decision.
