That's not tooooo bad knowing a lot of them probably aren't even competitive. Probably quite a few apps without recency and I know a lot of the FO's at my company applied without even meeting the Minimums. I'm sure this is pretty common.

And, how many have three reference letters attached? How many of those applicant will recruiting assume are just trying to go to JetBlue to be more competitive for a Legacy?

Nothing you don't already know I'm sure.

I want to make decent money and get the days off I want when it's time to go to the kid's dance recitals and baseball games. I'd be content spending the next 30 yrs at Blue. Just wish they'd give me a chance.
