If you have every one of these desired qualifications, then you are one of a very select few people.

I made it to a phone interview with Bombardier for an Engineering Test Pilot position. I met the minimum quals and have a background in systems test flight but am not a formally educated test pilot. The test pilots were not impressed with my experience and I was not considered further.

The HR recruiter I talked with said they can't get any test pilots willing to relocate to Wichita. After spending three weeks there at Flightsafety, I can understand why. That said, you could use that to your advantage when it comes to salary negotiation.
