Freight Runners gave me and my friend interview opportunities to SIC with them last December. We both had less than 600hours. Sierra West will do the same thing. Want a multi engine job? Well it's not going to pay anything other than crap but that's how it works with 500hrs. Want to build hours quick? Go teach at one of the foreign puppy mills. Don't want to teach? go do aerial photography for one of the photography companies such as Air Associates of Kansas or Apature Aviation. There's tons of opportunities in Alaska. Only way to find out if youre qualified though is to apply. It's not simple but sometimes it is.
