Went to the first job expo, met the VP flight ops at the AOTC and chatted with him for a few minutes, had my resume walked into more than one Fleet Captain's office.
Yeah, I know this might sound arrogant, but jeez, I feel like I have a pretty similar resume to multiple friends that have gotten interviews lately...By the numbers, I should have gotten the magic email long ago. What gives? Am I too old? Too experienced? I thought the Purple Bullet was as close to a guaranteed invite as they come?
Thanks, guys.
Regency of experience? Are you actively flying and updating your application?
