I understand that, I'm just saying no actual CJO has been extended like how the law that became effective this year talks about. Again, not concerned, just something of note.

From what I can tell there is an exemption to the rule if background checks are required by federal state or local laws, which I’m guessing pilots fall under that in some way.

Just a timeline since others have posted.

Applied when the hiring window opened at the start of August. Got the virtual phone screen email a little over 4 weeks later. Completed the virtual phone screen and a week later invited for the face to face. Phase 2 email less than 24 hours after the face to face. Phase 2 completion email and enter the pool 2 weeks after the face to face.

Good luck to everyone going through the process! Excited and blessed to be in the pool! Look forward to a training date email!

For reference I got the email for welcome to the pool 2 days later got a class date email that was 2 days ago. Interviewed end of September. So I would expect a class date soon for yourself

For your reference I got the entered into the pool email start of this week then 2 after I got the email for a class date. I interviewed end of September, so I imagine you’ll get and email soon for class. Congrats

Awesome! Glad it wasn't more than a couple days for you! Hoping I hear back sometime next week. Congrats to you as well!

Was wondering if anyone could speak to Vets in Blue? Is the expectation of attendance a F2F interview? Thanks.

You’ll have the opportunity to speak to a recruiter (either HR type or pilot). If the impression is good and you’re qualified based on what they’re looking for presently, it will likely result in a F2F. I was on the low side of qualified when I attended and received the F2F invite during the application window following the event. Treat it like an interview. Be prepared to look the part and have an answer for why you want to be at JetBlue. It’s a great experience and will only help you if you present yourself accordingly. Best of luck.

It has not typically been that way in the past, although I have some recent anecdotal experience to the contrary. A friend applied and completed the video interview but had not received a F2F invite or TBNT. He attended the RTAG conference, spoke to a recruiter who looked up his info, and was told to expect an email with an interview invite shortly. I think the same may be true for VIB.

I've been watching this forum for a while and thought I'd share my timeline so far. Seems mine is slower than most, video interview invite first week of September, submitted just a few days later on the 10th, didn't hear anything until I received the flight addendum just last Monday 18th, returned it several hours later, haven't heard anything since. Hopefully hear something back about a F2F very soon, fingers crossed. Going on 7 weeks since the video invite
