Will jet blue make their new hires sign a training bond? This is highly presumptuous, but wouldn't you just go there to wait it out for a few months til you got the call from a major? That's highly inefficient and detrimental to the jb training dept...

No you don't have to sign one, and the one that could have been interpreted to be one will be eliminated with the new pea version 2. I know this is hard to believe but there are people who want to work here. Knowing a few guys in the interview they will ask why jetBlue and they can tell if you really want to work here or not. Look, its a free market and we finally have many airlines hiring and jetBlue will have to compete and try to retain its pilots. So I would say if you want to work here put your app in, if a better deal comes along feel free to leave but come here knowing those other majors might not call you or maybe you don't get the nod so be prepared to make it a better airline and a place you will be happy to work for.

........No

So is it open now? I'm not seeing anything.

It's there
