Airline Job Interview Tomorrow
Hello Everyone
I have been offered a job interview for an Airport Customer Service/ Operations position with Jetblue airways for their new operations at LAX.
If I am offered for the job, would my training be in the LA area or would I be going outside of California? If so, how long would it be? I am not taking any summer classes for the next two months so traveling somewhere around the country wouldnt be a problem.
Just wondering if anyone here might have some insight on this.

Welcome to Flyertalk:
I'm not a Jetblue employee, but it's my understanding that your training would be in Newyork(JFK). I do not know for sure how long. Please be sure to ask all of these questions at your interview. I also wish you the best of luck & please let us know how it goes.

I'm going to move this over into the Jetblue forum, where they might be able to answer your questions.
Good luck with the interview!

training is usually in orlando, but seeing how LAX is a new operation i wouldn't be surprised if they trained you over at LGB or something. If it's out in orlando they'll pay for obviously your flight there and back, hotel expenses and your per diem is 40 bucks a day for food. You should be in Orlando about 2.5 weeks. First 2 days is orientation which is really boring but you still get paid. Then it's training for about 9-10 business days. Weekends are free to enjoy Orlando, or take a trip somewhere
. They'll stick you at an airport hotel so not much to do around
if you have any questions please ask!

Thank you to everyone for your insights! Thankfully my summer is pretty empty except for work so if I am offered the job it shouldnt be a problem.
One other thing, about a month ago, I recieved a speeding ticket. Wil this automatically mean that I will not be able to get the job?

Stating a traffic citation will either make you look nervous or reckless. I've never seen that question on applications, so leave out giving that information.

Thank you everyone for your replies!!
The interview went pretty nicely. The person who cunducted the interview was extremely easygoing and very talkative. I go back on Monday to do fingerprinting.
In terms of the speeding ticket. I did disclose it and she didnt seem to upset or concerned about. Id rather them know from me than find it out in a check of some sort and have them think I was hiding something.
Now how long is is usually for the background check to go through, and how long until I might find out if I got the job?
