Concur. Certainly a better QOL over commuting!

does anyone think it's worth going to a job fair with less than 2500 TT? Debating about going to one of the job fairs in August.

It won't hurt, but don't go in expecting to get hired. Your total time is still low, but JetBlue seems to like when you're persistent and have gone to see them more than once. It'll be good once you're in a competitive range to already have a career fair or two in the books to put on your application. Just my opinion.

How much TT and TSIC does it take to be competitive for JB these days?

No clue. I think north of 4000TT seems to be the sweet spot. I've heard of a few getting the call with 3000-3500. I just interviewed myself so I don't know for certain. I'd imagine as long as there's no CBA, that "sweet spot" will keep getting lower.

Cool thanks. What's the expected upgrade time these days? 5 years on average?

Not likely for new hires. Last bid had zero 190 Captains, 320 went to 2049/roughly 3400, which is a 5/2011 hire. That's to be bottom of the barrel in JFK. That person will have 6 years on property when they train.

Can anyone suggest a good trainer for the cognitive test portion of the interview?
Thanks for the help
