One month ago I sent out a number of resumes. I got a few replies from some flight schools asking me to fill out their application but then never heard from them again. They didnt even reply to my follow up email a few days later asking if they received my application. Last week I sent 5 emails to skydiving places who recently had placed ads looking for pilots. NOT one even had the courtesy to even acknowledge receipt. Their emails were directly to a person and were small outfits. Its not like their secretary lost it .... I didn't expect a job but I thought at least 1 in 5 would respond saying "thank you but we've already found someone or we will keep you in mind or you aren't qualified etc. I came here (APF) asking for advice and all I get is people criticizing my grammar or questioning the validity of my licenses..
Welcome to the real world. Small "Mom and Pop" respond to only those they want to interview. Every operation that advertises is inundated with CVs from all walks of life. That said, they don't have the time to cater the fragile egos such as yours.

Your attitude, will as underlying as it may be, will surely come out during interviews you may be invited to participate. That said... Loose the tude dude and grow a set. Welcome to the real world.
