This didn't happen in 2008 either. I interviewed with a red tie guy. Your attitude has to do with much more than what tie you wear.

he was asked why he wore a red tie to a "jetBLUE" interview. he said he wanted them to remember him.

YMMV. He ultimately quit and went back to corp flying. but had he stayed he'd be a 320 ca...

I said gutsy move mav! well played.

Talked to him. It wasn't a red tie. It was just not blue.

I didn't wear any blue a few years ago and got the job. Not once was asked what I was wearing. Pretty sure they don't care as long as you look presentable in a suit. Their time is more valuable than to be judging your choice of colors.

^^^ what he said. And this goes for any interview. Spend some money on your visa. get a suit that fits well. Something you've purchased in the last 30-60 days that your dad didn't wear and you didn't try to get laid in at prom. Iron your friggin shirt and put a shine on the shoes. Walk tall and carry in a good attitude. jetblue doesn't test your flying skills in the interview, but if you walk in looking like a disheveled slob, what do you think that says?

Play the part for a few hours then go back to being a slob at the bar

Someone said if you have blue eyes you are automatically hired, is this true?

I joke....

This is actually true. But only if you live within a 1 hour drive from FLL, MCO, JFK or BOS.

Just for clarification, is JB's most junior CA a 10/12 hire aka a 3 year upgrade?

At Vets in Blue they said one interview group every month until the summer... So sometime in January, but they didn't give a date. Maybe someone else knows for sure.
