4250 TT
3850 Fixed Wing
400 RW
1500+ Turbine
1000+ TPIC
2 type ratings
4 year degree

Should I just hold out for the Majors (preference of course) or take what I can get and hope within the next year the extra time and 121 experience will get me where I want?

Thanks or the input.
It depends. Are you a govvie or contractor? LEO, DoD, etc? What type of equipment/missions do you fly? Any trips though the sandbox? I hate to give this advice, but maybe you should do a lap through one of the job fairs and see what the hiring bubbas have to say about your competitiveness. I think Jet Blue will treat you like a vet. They do with school teachers, police, paramedics etc.
