1. Has anyone been applying below the required mins (I don’t have 1000 turbine and no PIC)? I don’t want to hurt my chances by applying too early but I also want to get the heck out of here. Any success?
2. What sets a good “low-hour” applicant apart from the others?
I am new to the process of getting picked up by a major as you can see.
No such thing as hurting your chances by applying to early. Apply and let United know your interested as soon as possible. Low time pilots have been hired before but they were well networked and attended everything they could to get face time.
Your time is deffinently low and I wouldn’t get my hopes up but crazier things have happened. Good luck! Good things come to those who set a goal and work hard for it.
