Just remember, there are hundreds of guys with college degrees, clean records, 2000+ hours of PIC time, a Check Airman letter, and more all sitting at the regionals waiting to be hired. Many with 10+ letters of recommendation. If you have no PIC time, you need to have something else that makes you more attractive than them to the hiring team.
