There is no such thing as a guaranteed job these days. You have to read between the lines. What I think you mean, is a guaranteed interview,with preferential hiring over some Joe Schmoe off the street. BUT, you need to set yourself apart from the rest! Finish that 4-year degree, and get your CFI, CFII, and MEI! A lot of flight departments are starting to add the CFI, CFII, and MEI to their list of basic requirements. Plus, once the airline industry is back on the up-and-up, they will probably set the minimum flight times at 1500TT like it was way back when...
