Someone I flew with the other day who was more than competitive, lives in MSP, told me he can't get a call from Blue to save his life. When he went to a career fair and showed his resume the recruiter said "to be honest, you have Delta written all over you."
First, let me start with saying thank you for those at JetBlue who have been providing solid insight, advice, and answering questions here on APC. I've been following this thread for a while and have really appreciated the feedback.
Secondly, I have a question myself. Here's the deal:
I don't currently live in Florida, but, I grew up there, my whole family still lives there, and I have a rental house that is all within ~2 hours of both MCO and FLL. My intent if I ever got the call to come onboard with JetBlue would be to pick myself up and move back home. So, should I use an address in Florida such as a family's house or my rental house for the ability to check the "2 hours within driving distance", or leave my current address and express my desires in the cover letter to move? I don't want to seem like I'm bluffing with a FL address when I'm not really there, but I also don't want to not take the leverage if the hiring team won't really care.
Thoughts?
