General Overview of Experience Very VERY laid back. Show up and check in with 2 People people who take paperwork for review and take fingerprints then another takes you to a holding room with coffee, water, snacks, a logbook review person and a semi circle of chairs. You can sit or stand around the chairs to chat with several chief pilots and line pilots who cycle through during the day. This is a very relaxing time and you’ll have multiple opportunities as you come back to this room between each portion of the interview. It’s very conversational and they welcome any questions you may want to ask. When it’s your time your interviewer(s) will come get you and take you to another room. This is a pilot/recruiter and a People department rep. I think I got about 5 questions here starting with one question about one part of my resume and then TMAAT/situational questions. Back to holding, then off to the “debrief”. That’s with another People person and a chief pilot. Personally I didn’t get much there. Just “tell us about you”, “why JetBlue?” and maybe one other question. Back to holding them off to the “assessment”. The assessment is a computer-based profile. It’s a little bit of everything and mostly multiple choice: word association (pencil is to write as book is to BLANK, multiple choice and “read” is one of the options), number series (1, 2, 6, ?, 120), basic algebra [ 2(x+13)=80, solve for x], some other series-type stuff but with abstract pictures of colored shapes, a simulated flight designed to test how much you notice while multitasking, and some exercises using a joystick (some flying and some keeping a ball centered on a bullseye). They say not to worry much about the assessment because they don’t really use it. I don’t know. It kinda sucks. After the assessment you’re free to go. All in all it was an enjoyable day and the people all seem top notch.
