A super qualified friend of mine applied in the days of bubble sheets. He was always selected to be an instructor early in each military assignment. He didn't read our app carefully enough however. He separated his PIC and instructor time incorrectly. Because he had less than the minimums in non-instructor PIC, he didn't get to the threshold for the interview. He was supposed to add his instructor time to PIC.

As it was, UPS snagged him. And they got a really good deal by virtue of having him work for them - in spite of his demonstrated bubble sheet weaknesses.

I think it very prudent to have an informed person look it over.
