"...just as it is for military pilot candidates before they are selected for flight school. Our goal is to ensure that our Gateway 7 selection assessments, currently in development, will help us choose well-qualified candidates who have the character traits and aptitude that ideally suit them for a career as pilots at JetBlue."
Since they're taking notes from the military, new candidates can go through a full Fitness Assessment (aka PT test): push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, and a timed distance ruck run. Instead a ruck, maybe they will be required to carry their luggage and the Captain's luggage during the assessment.

I wonder how long the training contract will be if JB fronts the entire flight training bill...
Most of the Chinese carriers who send their pilots to train in the U.S. have training contracts for the entirety of their careers.

The most important part of their selection process will be the psych testing. They'll be looking for pushover management wannabees and easily-manipulated "yes" people.
They will in effect try to breed ALPA off the property by flooding the pipeline with spineless but useful idiots.
Blue juice enemas will be incorporated into all phases of training.
