That's a mistake. While this place has issues, I do like working here. Having said that, having only one application in at one airline is not a good idea IMHO.....

I'm already at JetBlue. I'm happy here, and I have no interest in leaving, so I have zero active applications with any airline. (That's what I meant by "no apps out there.")

Another "it's better than Mesa"chap.
Terrific.

It is better than Mesa. It's better than all the regionals. Depending on what's important to you and your personal preference, jetBlue is a great place to finish your career at. I'm glad we agree.

I put "JetBlue People Department" (their code for HR). Anyone think this should be tweaked?

Anyone inputting any info to the "skills / certifications" portion of the app?

Really hoping to get a call this time around. 4,300TT 1,266PIC (no turbine) 3,000 jet SIC. 2 letters of rec from current JetBlue pilots. No failed checkrides, no DUI's, no skeletons, live local to a JetBlue domicile. Seems "secret handshake" is the secret to getting called. Fingers crossed!

I don't want to hear that ever again. The better than Mesa or regional s---t that is.

In regards to the failed training, need some guidance. I have never failed an faa checkride or anything in the 121 world. I did bust my mid course ppl stage check part 141 but it wasnt for certification. Do I need to include that?

No, that's like failing a quiz.

I'd put down as many skills as you have, although I can't speak to what to put because that is a new addition to the application.

There are a lot of people here with very similar backgrounds. i hope you get the call!!
