Anyone, even a JB recruiter, would say it's foolish to put all your eggs in one basket.
After attending the conference I can clearly say that jetBlue is where I want to go. By far, they had the best presence. That was a learning experience for me. I thought somewhere else might be more attractive, but I was wrong. For me. I want to go to jetBlue.
That all sounds great but do they know that? Did you specify why you were there? Did you say you only want them as your at a career fair? I'm not saying what you did is wrong, I'm just saying I wouldn't have stopped at their booth letting them know you were there when you already had an interview. But that's just me, your interview could have been cancelled for many reasons.
