Default Alaska hiring question

What is the best way to get your foot in the door at Alaska? Obviously knowing someone is good, but if you don't.....?

Would it be too much to show up at headquarters and personally introduce yourself while turning in your resume?

I sense a thread shift coming. The poor guy is going to have to wade through many posts of Skyhigh angst in order to get a simple answer.

Sorry, I got excited. Sky doesn't post much good news. He has been trying to sell that plane for a long time, for those who have been following the story.

The airplane was an old Taylorcraft which he thoroughly disliked. Things are looking up now that its gone, and I expect he will be happier without it.
