Keeping all doors open, while still CFIing in hopes someone rings my phone for a CJO/Class/interview.
Whats everyone else seeing/hearing right now? How long do you think it will be until planes start to deliver again?
You are greatly over-estimating your competitiveness in the marketplace.
Lots of pilots retire from Netjets - it's a desirable job. They do not hire wet ATP CFI's in anything but extreme circumstances. You got a boilerplate "you do not meet our stated minimums" HR letter. It does not follow that when you meet the stated mins, you are competitive.
Skywest may call, but the market has shifted and 1500 hours isn't remarkable any more. They have applicants >>> positions.
You need some intermediate job to build time and experience.
