I can’t believe you haven’t been recruited already...it seems like you, a rank amateur with 0 experience would be a much better candidate than someone flying RJs for thousands of hours in and out of the same airports Thea Majors fly to.

What do you believe you offer to a potential employer that experienced pilots don’t?

Apply to Delta once you have your instrument rating. They will love that you can fly their jets in IMC. Not all Delta guys can fly IFR; so a huge plus for you. 😎

Someone please correct me if I’m wrong - But in the early 60s United was paying Pilots commercial ratings with a guaranteed job once you passed. A friend of mines dad was one of those - hired in 1963 and retired off the whale in 2000. My airline an ULCC - considered a Major on APC is hiring Purdue grads with the restricted ATP - I believe we have 5 or so now.
Granted they do have 1000 ish hours vs the 250 hour guys in 1963.
