Wait for Legacy or Take the Major Airline
Hey Everyone,
This is a tough situation that I’m in and I’m struggling with what to do. Currently fly 135 with no degree and I recently went through two interviews. One with a major airline that I ended up getting a CJO with and the other with Delta that unfortunately did not go the way I was hoping. Ultimately, I would love to work for DL as I live in one of their bases and it is a solid company. The other major airline offer on the table isn’t a bad job and I’m grateful for the opportunity, however I do not live in any of their bases so I would either have to commute or move. In addition, the growth at that airline is not as substantial. I have narrowed my options to two: 1) wait six months at my 135 and reapply to DL or 2) take the job at the major on the table right now, spend a few years there, and then move on.
What are people’s thoughts on this and what would you do if you were in my shoes?
Thanks in advance for taking the time to respond!
