My situation is a little bit special: non-us citizen with only 3 year of working visa, which could be extended if airlines are willing to sponsor (currently not). I want to stay here just because I would like to explore more in US while building wider network.

I'm aiming for Ejets also because they are heavier, which equipment weight actually matters in international market. I'm not too sure if I go to companies with CRJs I would be guaranteed for 900s. Also, there is a couple contract E170 captains opening in Asia I am willing to do in China; also interested in some corporate/charter outfit, which I need to build more flight time.

A lot of people said I should just go back after the election results, but I like here to much so I'm taking my chances. Pursuing my American Dream. Hopefully living somewhere in west coast or even PNW.

My priority now: equipment weight = flight time > upgrade > bases

Thank you for every one that PMed me! In all, I'm still opening for suggestions and insights for all airlines! Not going to be able to start any ground school until May for now...

And yep, I'm ATP qualified age now 👌🏼
Oh no, your flying 208's so you don't end up on the news. An opportunity to "fly" in the right seat of a 747 with 250tt is an opportunity to kill yourself, I don't know how proud you should be of that.
What you mean is you have the opportunity to "ride" in the right seat let someone else keep you safe, and log the time.
