Atlas is
VERY good at diversifying. Our class is made up of regional, military, charter, ACMI-heavy, turboprop-mini, PIC, SIC only... you name it we have it.
Face time is
HUGE, "I can't afford to go to he women in aviation conference" is no excuse! How bad do you want it? If you've read any pages of this forum you'll know it's worth it's weight in gold to go there.
Have patience, update once a month-ish, get face time. If you want it bad enough you'll figure out a way and as long as you meet the mins you stand a chance at getting a call!
Just make
absolutely sure you know what you are getting into. The HR department here are professional weakness-sniffers! If you even have the slightest of doubts Atlas is not for you, they WILL find it and you will not be hired. They ask 101 different ways if you know what your getting into, they will know if you don't. Get the info, most of us Atlas-geeks are happy to answer question, ask ask ask!
The lifestyle is NOT for everyone, be absolutely sure you know what you are about to get into.
Good luck to all that really want it and congrats to those that have made it!
