What Bozo neglected to tell you about his resume is that he is also an international man of mystery. Word is he once saved the world from Dr Evil and drives an E-type with the Union Jack painted on it.

Oh, and in a prior life he was an astronaut in the Mercury program.

Besides that, he's pretty average.

This is all great but how many job fairs ? JetBlue doesn't attend a lot of them but they are golden when you can get to one ....

Before everyone wants to tear me apart, find an excuse, or a reason why I'm not at JB...

I share to show that no one knows what the 'formula' is. I'm not even saying that I'm 'qualified' and 'you're' not. All I'm saying is everything happens for a reason and this is a great place to get info and share it.

I'm not posting anymore of my quals or querks, but to answer your question, I'm a frequent job fair attendee. However, I haven't seen JB (or DL and others) at some of these fairs in a while. With that said, they have been at WIA and OBAP.

Thank you guys for your support and encouragement. I will continue to network and update my hours weekly.

That would have been the only reason I could see.

I flew with an FO who was hired who didn't even meet the ICAO PIC requirement. IIRC around 5000 TT and no TPIC. I don't know if he had any real strong internal recs, I don't think so.

I always hear 1000 TPIC or a lot of TSIC. What about guys with only TPIC, but not a lot of Total Time? When I apply in the next 12 months I should have about 2000 Total Time and about 1500 TPIC (Military). Is that competitive?

Recently met a new hire from october who had just over 3K TT when hired. Non-military.

Generally speaking, exceptions are made for military. Good luck!

I'm sure that's why they dropped their mins to 1500tt. I highly doubt they'll be calling a CRJ FO with 1500, but a military type.. sure.
