Hey Excel,
Welcome to the APF! I have over 5000+, 2500+ turbine PIC and just got a major offer. Internal rec I thought helped. Had internals at JetBlue but it's a different show there these days according to my "buddy" who said the internal would really only "assist" anymore, never guarantee a call - Also, heard that JB likes to see those that update their profile often (I've heard "weekly" as a magic word?) FWIW
Good luck - keep trucking...
FWIW - Why someone would want to leave that tyoe of gig, in my case, no set schedule and being on call 351/24/7 is never a fun gig (Having a day off but not knowing until 6pm of the same day is not a day off) I'll take a schedule anyday - even reserve (for a little while anyway

) At least I can plan the kids B-day party and know I'll be there!
