Wondering about me? I have never been to an interview and not been offered a job. I actually have a standing offer that I will take when my family circumstances improve. I'm not bitter, if that's what you're getting at. I'm actually one of the lucky exceptions. But I know that I'm VERY lucky and not everyone will have the same opportunities so I try to provide realistic info to people who are trying to make realistic career decisions. My advice is based on the composite experiences of lots of professional pilots who I know. Some of the readers here don't know any professional pilots at all, so maybe the info will be of use.
