Or, maybe not worthy of responses because (guessing here, as I don't have a stake in this):
1. Not being able to justify spending on extra staff to explain why to unsuccessful candidates
2. HR Legal have advised it's best not to because someone argued the reasoning in the past
3. The benchmark was raised after training issues
4. The hold pool expiry was brought forward in anticipation of something on the horizon
I don't think anyone is saying J2 is an 'amazing company', just that it's a good one from their perspective once you're in, but to be realistic if you don't make the cut (hold pool or not) as you don't have to be given a reason by any airline as to why you didn't make it. It's really not that unusual.
PS back when I had 180 hours and applied
everywhere for my first job, I only got one personal response explaining why I was unsuccessful, and that was only because it was one aeroplane owned by a rich business owner who felt sorry for me. It's nothing new.
