Jesus gained disciples when he began preaching. Probably, his message appealed to people, so people began to follow him, especially the twelve. Some or all of the disciples remained with him for the rest of his life. All but John deserted him when he was arrested, but they gradually re-formed and began preaching to the nations. If you count all believers in Christianity as disciples, then Jesus has had disciples ever since.
When they began to follow Christ. An Apostle is not the same as a Disciple. They are made throught two different processes. A disciple is one disciplined in the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God. So when anyone begans to follow His foot steps and live as He called them to, they are deemed a disciple.
