Any idea if they will open the application window for those attending the Vets in Blue session and others who haven't yet applied to JB?

I have not heard if they will open it. I doubt it though, as there were 3000+ in the last window, and they haven't reviewed all the candidates. I'm guessing they won't open it again for a while. I haven't heard when.

Not true. I know two guys from XJT who didn't make it recently.

Did they not pass phase 1 or phase 2?

That's Ben for ya, nice guy but gets carried away to make a point.
I know a guy that does the interviews and it is not that easy.
They want to hire you but people do fail.

The point Im trying to make is Jetblue doesn't invite pilots to the interview it doesn't want to hire. If you don't make it past phase one its typically because you did not present yourself well or answer the questions as well as the interviewers had liked. Should you pass phase 1 and make it to phase 2 then undisclosed skeletons in your closet are what prevents you from being offered the position.
Currently this airline is short pilots and with projected attrition that trend will only continue. Now is a good time to interview.

If it is sold out, then you should register for the waitlist. Those who don't get in this time and are put on the waitlist are the first ones to get notified next time.

I think there were something like 50 on the waitlist from last November's session, and they got notified of the March session even before it went out more broadly to JetBlue pilots.

Guess I read it a different way.
Yes now is a good time to interview.

Any thoughts on how (if at all) alpa coming on property might affect potential hiring numbers, both short and long term?
