I'm going to be a career changer and plan to begin training in a few months. I've got a healthcare job now, so I'm leaving a very stable (and decent paying) job to pursue this. With this virus, I'm wondering if I should hold off for a while till things look better or continue with the current plan hoping things return to "normal" by the time I'm done and ready for the regionals?
just remember one thing. You will be leaving a stable job for a unstable job. Airlines are fickle....it’s all about timing and seniority which goes hand and hand. We could be looking at a major recession and mass layoffs. This is probably going to blow 9/11 out of the water and post 9/11. Most of us were flying around 9/11 but this scares the crap of me. The fallout could be months/years.
long story short chase your dreams. You can’t predict this stuff.
