JetBlue Poolies as of OCT 2019
 
I wanted to start a thread to see who is still currently in the pool and waiting or have an upcoming class date. From what I can gather there are probably 50+ people swimming, and I would guess the next folks to get a class are the June interviewees. We could get some insight from others to try and figure out where we are in the order and if anyone else has any insight please share.

Interview: July 9th
Phase 2: July 15th
Phase 2 complete: SEP 10th
PRIA from former carriers: SEP 27th

May 14 interview
Phase 2 complete on 7/15.
I also had a bad experience with GIS.

Those that had bad experience with GIS, how did you stay in contact with them? I sent in my stuff Monday but a lot of people say they check every week? How do I know who to contact each week to see the progress?

I would call them weekly. I verified that they had all of my required documents in June but got a call in September from them requesting I re send my previous employment documents. The documents that I verified they had in June! Maybe if I had continued to call them this wouldn’t have happened.

Where did you get the number? It might be in the stack of emails I got I'll have to go back and look.

Wow could be a year. That’s just crazy.


When I was hired
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 guess 2011 was a freak year.
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.

Couldn't agree more. But I imagine it is a cost issue. GIS seems like the best example of the lowest bidder wins the contract. I talked to a few folks there who sounded like they personally cared about trying to help me but I got the feeling that maybe the system they are working within is so inefficient they are stuck. GIS would do well as a federal government contractor!
