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..
Wow!!!
People here are trying to help you with good ideas. Nobody here has the ability to offer you a job. I think your expectations are a little high. At your experience level it is going to take a lot of work to get a job in a jet. Writing on here is only going to help point you in the right direction. You still need to go out and do the legwork yourself.
Stop dreaming of instant first officer positions because you bought two type ratings. That's not how it works for most people, even if the schools that sold you the type ratings told you that.
JNS is right, lose the attitude or people here will stop offering advice.
