LMAO. Three type ratings, 7000 hours total time; 5600 Turbine; 500 PIC 121; College Degree; Currently a Check Pilot with with FAA Designated Type-Check Authority; Numerous well-written and sincere letters to HR expressing my interest in Compass; Travel to two job fairs and an internal recommendation from someone rather high in the food chain.
Not even an offer to interview...
Thanks for the kick in the teeth. Just what I needed.
Sucks but maybe "more competitive" doesn't mean what you think it does. More competitive may just mean less qualified. This is for a regional job after all and they may prefer candidates who are less likely to bolt after 6 months for something better. Not saying that's your intention, but your qualifications are better suited for that than your average first year regional FO. Food for thought.
