JB October 29 Interview date
 

Since the last thread got shut down...lets please keep this about October 29th interview date..and any updates...


I heard a rumor that the AM slots may get a dec 4th class date...but I think thats very ambitious.

I know they have called some of my previous employers. I haven't seen any PRIA stuff arrive in the mail yet. I have a friend in training now at jetBlue U and they were told that classes were full until february. It sounded a bit far off to me but I don't know how many are in the pool at this point.

Just from word of mouth the pool is fairly dry. I think September interviews already have class dates.

New guys, be prepared. In 08' we were offered class dates at the interview. Guys are leaving and we are taking planes. Show up sharp it's your interview to blow. Things are moving fast again.

GoodLuck dudes!

I also think that Dec 4 would be really ambitious, but at the same time I know "Late Dec, early Jan" was mentioned specifically at the exit interview, so take it for what it's worth.

I was also told that the class dates award was dependent on when you interviewed in the day (First to interview, first to class)

Dont be afraid to call the company performing the Background checks. Be proactive- they hold your timetable in their hands.

Out of curiosity, if you contacted them what would you say?

"Hurry up?"

Or do you mean contact them to ensure there are no hold ups or snags?
And assuming there were, aren't they supposed to contact you?

I contacted them several times while waiting. I just asked for the status of my background check. They were very polite and didn't seem to mind my inquiry at all.

Good luck to all of you...I'm pretty darned happy here.

Repeat after me" whats the delay?" & "what can I do to expidite?"
In my case, Piedmont was dragging their feet- I got on piedmont myself and urged the investigator to send a letter of non-compliance. And No, they did not contact me about PDT, I had to inquire as to why the check was taking so long. Be proactive- it can cost you seniority, even if its only 15 numbers. Good luck

I like it!

I think a phone call is in order today.

In either case, did either of you have a reason to suspect the the process was snagged? Did they contact you for any reason?
