You will have wait for your background check will be clearance sometime in between 3 or 5 days. You will have wait to see if they will accepted your new job. When you can go to work within approximately 3 or 5 days to be result your fingerprinted screening is cleared. They will called you when you can go to work and pick it up the SIDA badge.

Thanks again to evryone who posted their input. It has been very valuable and hopefully I will be working for an airline very soon.
On a side note: I am currently in college. Mt San Antonio College to be exact. And I usually take between 12-15 units a semester. Are airlines pretty nice to college students. I understand the bid system and ow schedules are based around that and of course the almighty seniority system. But anyone here who is in the same boat as me? College wise at least?

The college part should not be a problem. If B6 has a union(that I'm not sure of) it is harder to work around your schedule. However after you've been there x number of days you can swap which is a great benefit. At my airline you must complete probation(90days) before you can swap.

I applied for an Airport Operations crew Member position for LAX. So it will be very exciting if I get it. I LOVE airplanes and to me being near them is like being a kid in a candy store. Now flying on them, is another story hahahahaha!!! Very much so afraid to fly

Let me know if you hear from JetBlue to be accepted your new job. It will take several days to get clearance your fingerprinted screening is done. They will let you go to work sometime in between 2 or 3 days.

orientation was the most boring part of the training. 2 days of just sitting there
