Agreed. Going and getting some heavy international time or whatever is needed to continue to improve your app & resume. I’ve checked the 121, military (helicopter & light turbo prop/jet), Part 91, Chief Pilot and Masters Degree boxes. 7,000 + hours, clean training record and I’ve heard nothing. The heaviest thing I flew before recently was 70k lbs. Also, just received my second internal.
So, I did what is necessary to improve my experience. Getting some heavy international experience and going to more job fairs.
It’s no guarantee, but few things are these days.
