1. Where do you find out about hiring events? Is there a single place these all get posted, or a few places to watch closely?
Google the organizations OBAP, NGPA, WIA, etc and follow. More better: have a friend at your company of choice do a chief pilot meet n greet. Saves time, money, and hassle
2. Is it important or useful to join various different organizations?
YES, majors still want well rounded candidates and some volunteering gives you a thing to talk about other than slinging gear
3. Is it worth it paying for an application review? If so, who do you recommend?
Get the interview first, then worry about that
4. Once exceeding 1000 turbine 121, is it still important to continue to grind hours?
Yes, if you're still only at sub 2k-3k hours. Some think having a recent new type rating helps.
5. Is a college degree still valuable?
Depends, did you do something worthwhile instead?
Thanks everyond![/QUOTE]
Good luck! The majors have retracted and the music has stopped at some places. This year will be indicative of the next five years for this industry.
