Hi everyone! I was busy instructing yesterday so I didn't see the responses until now. I much appreciate everyones input! As great as it would be to fly a jet, that's not really the reason I was looking at this job. My main idea was getting multi time since I'm so low and instead of renting another 13 hours to get to the min 25, I thought a full time job might do it better. However, after reading the responses and doing some more in-depth research, I've decided to look elsewhere. It appears right now to be one of those too good to be true positions, and when I'm looking for a job that could later on down the line get me investigated my the FAA on legal hour logging, I'd much rather pass. I've since started looking more at PlaneSense. They have a more established SIC program where I can still get turbine time, be based in PHX, and if I like it and stay long enough, get my multi time on a PC24.

The main goal in all of this is that I don't want to apply to the airlines as just another CFII with 1500 hours and 25 multi. I want my resume to standout and help my chances the best I can. If that means I pass on a multi turbine job because it's a little sketchy and instead add at least 750turbine and 250PIC turbine to my resume, maybe that elongates the path to the airlines, but my resume will look a lot better than an CFII straight outta the traffic pattern will!
