The people being interviewed currently are from last year's hold file, who had already attended previous interviews/group sessions but were pending final interviews with Impulse. These people had applied and been interviewed prior to the JetStar announcement on December 1, 2003.
It's my understanding that those who registered most recently will be interviewed (with the initial group process, etc) over the coming months. Around 300 FA's will be needed, if not more over the next year and a half.
Those who have registered since the JetStar announcement have not been interviewed yet. Applications are still being taken.
Hope this clears up any confusion.
