2011 app in June interview in August class in October phase 2 complete while in training.

I wonder how many people pass the interview and end up going other places before we hire them.

In 2012-2014 waiting a year was the norm. In the early 2000’s many had to apply 2,3,4 or more times just to get a call.

Whiles times have changed, this still isn’t an instant gratification event.

I don’t know coolhand there is a large difference between instant gratification and what “could be” a year.

That was my thought exactly through this whole process. I gotta think a hand full of people move on while waiting so long.

Especially after having to deal with GIS as a company. I found dealing with them rather off putting, and felt that it didn't reflect well on JetBlue for utilizing them. Best thing JB could do is to bring the background verification process in house IMHO.

GIS would do well as a federal government contractor!
