I am not saying that as an excuse just wanted to clarify that learning to fly wasn't the only thing I was doing. Would I be considered? FWIW I was hired by another regional, because they had domiciles that would work for me as far as child care (I haven't gone to class yet, awaiting separation). My child care situation has changed and Skywest's domiciles work better for me.
I know someone with 3 failed checkrides who was in my class and did just fine. I also know someone with 4 failed checkrides and got hired. Take full responsibility and explain what you learned from each failure.
