Based on your comment, I see you haven't done any interviewing, on the company side of the table.

Many of us here have seen 300-hour pilots filled with self-esteem and new untested skills--some of us have been one of them. They have two real careers moves, get humble and learn OR continue believing their own publicity. The first invariably become good pilots, get good jobs and become good officers (military). The second may eventually do so, but have a hard time, always wonder why others pass them by and make it look easy. I've known several that went thru Flying Eval Boards, one got fired by a major airline, one lost his wings and got fired. Others left this veil of tears too early, showing us how not to fly or burdening us with new regulations. Others just had crappy careers.

Everyone here would just love for every pilot to be in the first group.

PS Ass kissing will NOT get you a job, any interviewer can spot that in the first 30 seconds and won't be impressed.
