My ultimate goal is to catch the "major wave" next year, but I'm thinking this will be good to keep me current. Your remark about how this might look on my resume has me mildly concerned, but I still think SWA would much rather hire me after flying for SkyWest for a year, rather than sitting on my a$$. Thoughts??
They hire plenty of military, but somehow they sniff out the guys who want to stick around or at least that's what I've noticed. If they figure out you want to leave within a year they won't bother...interview carefully.
