If you're 1/2 serious about Spirit, put on your suit, go to a job fair, and stand in line with the huddled masses. Practice your 5 minute pitch on why you're a good fit for Spirit, be ready for the 4000TT question, nail the answer, and finish with a smile and a firm handshake.

Then cross your fingers and wait to see if you set the hook or not.
I 100% agree with NedsKid here. I was hired short of 4000TT, no credit for military sorties.

Apply, go to the job fair and put your best foot forward. Shine without being arrogant.

There's a LOT to like about Spirit, I'm extremely happy to have gotten on here. It's different, unless you've flown civilian or done a civilian training program, you can't imagine how different. But, their training is surprisingly effective, even enjoyable.
