be realistic...
All,
Be realistic about what you need and what you are going to be doing. You need a four year degree (w/ a good GPA) and FAA ratings. No one is going to care where the degree is from (just that you passed and had a good GPA) or where you got your ratings as long as you have basic instrument skills and the min. hours.
In short - can this candidate be trained and would I spend 3-4 days with them on a trip.
