Talking jet blue

Hi Im not sure if I should post my question here but well here it goes.
I just sign up for the next job fair in Vegas and they have 2 rooms,one for low time pilots and the other for high time pilots.
one of the companies in the high time pilot room is jet blue and theirs minimums are posted like this...any commercial pilot (no minimum hours)
are they hiring people just with their commercial license??
any info will be appreciated
thanks

According to their website, you need a little more than just a commercial pilot cert.

Minimum Qualifications:
- 1500 hours total time in airplanes (including turbine Helicopter,
excluding Simulator, Flight Engineer time)
- 500 hours in fixed wing airplanes
- Recency of flight experience will be considered
- Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airline Transport Pilot (ATP)
Certification
- Current FAA Class 1 Medical Certificate
- Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Radio License
- Valid Passport with the ability to travel in and out of the United
States
- Three reference letters from Pilots who can personally attest to the
candidate’s flying skills (must bring originals to interview)
- Vision corrected to 20/20
- High School Diploma or General Education Development (GED) Diploma
- College Degree preferred but not required
- Regular attendance and punctuality
- Organizational fit for the JetBlue culture, that is, exhibit the
JetBlue values of Safety, Caring, Integrity, Fun and Passion
- Well groomed and able to maintain a professional appearance
- Pass a ten (10) year background check and pre-employment drug test
- Legally eligible to work in the country in which the position is
located
- When working or traveling on JetBlue flights, and if time permits, all
capable Crewmembers are asked to assist with light cleaning of the
aircraft
*JetBlue will only consider PIC time when the Pilot has signed for the
aircraft. Please use only this time when completing the areas of the
application asking for PIC time to be entered.
Candidates who have previously interviewed will be ineligible for
another opportunity to do so for a period of six (6) months from the
date of their last interview
Competitive Qualifications:
Our computers surface the most competitive applicants in the database.
These files are then reviewed by a team of line Pilots. Due to the high
volume of applications we receive, competitive qualifications can be
significantly higher than the minimum requirements. On average, we are
currently seeing the following background in candidates selected to
interview:
- Over 3,000 hours total time in airplanes
- Greater than 1,000 hours PIC
- Greater than 1,000 hours in more sophisticated aircraft utilizing
Electronic Flight Instrument Systems (EFIS), Flight Management Systems
(FMS)
- Bachelor's Degree
- Recency of experience (Greater than 200 hours within the last 12
months)
*JetBlue will only consider PIC time when the Pilot has signed for the
aircraft. Please use only this time when completing the area of the
application asking for PIC time to be entered.

Are you going to be able to get the English language proficiency endorsement on your license?
