Is it really that hard to explain? If i'm in the interview, the company knows full where I've worked and for how long. If you aren't going to hire a pilot who left one regional for another, then why invite them for an interview in the first place?
What about the other way around? You left one regional with a quick upgrade and crappy contract for another with a much longer upgrade but better contract? Are you going to leave us for another airline when our contract is crap but some other major has a better one? Sounds like you're afraid of the added responsibility of becoming a Captain.
You can spin this stuff either way. The vast majority of this career is luck and timing.
I not attacking you personally, I have no idea what your story is get off my nuts.
1 guys quit for stupid reasons all the time.
2 guys don't attempt to answer for there stupid decisions until the day there asked to in an interview. Mainly because they don't perceive them as a potential negative.
So create good answers then poke holes in those answers and make them even better. I've talked to several guys who have failed a interview. they didn't realize the failure was not what they were answering for but how they answered for it. A good interviewer will try to poke holes where they think your venerable. Guys come out the interview, "they didn't like blah blah blah", no they didn't like your response to "blah blah blah". They excepted it before they called you in, or they wouldn't have wasted their time.
