It's not a simple answer. Unlike some carriers, jetBlue's computer ranks all applicants before each months call for interviews goes out. That means someone who is highly qualified might submit and get the call that month. Someone less qualified might have an app in 2-3 years and never get called. jetBlue doesn't use the "first in first called" approach so there is no way to give you an answer.
Hope this helps
