Also, it begs to ask the question, what are we hiring for? We are short 190 FO’s. We still
have something like 10 320’s parked. But where else are We lacking? The order book doesn’t seem like it needs 600 pilots. Just my observation. The more that get hired the better. However, I’m not holding my breath for 600.

Hey everyone,
just wondering, with jetBlue interviews is there a correlation between success/decline in interviews depending on how much time is spent interviewing candidates?
Like is there a sweet spot or typically no difference
