Default Need a couple of informational interviews plz

Hello,

My name is Damian Cortez. I am currently a student at The University of Texas at San Antonio. I am currently a Geology major here but my passion has always been flying. With the market in its current state I found it best to pursue another career and then work on getting my licenses once I have a secure job.

Anyway, I am taking a career counseling class here at UTSA and I have an assignment that I find very interesting and challenging. I have to build a network of seven people that are in some way related to my career choice. If anybody would be willing to help I would very much appreciate it. All I would need is a simple informational interview with a couple questions about what your job title is, what you like about the field, some downsides to it, recommendations, etc.

Please PM me if you can help me. It will be very much appreciated. Thanks!

PMs are shut off until you make 5 posts I believe.

I was unaware that PM's are shut off. I will bump this thread twice more then.

Thanks for the links. Although I find that the truth right now for the profession is rather harsh, it doesn't really seem to turn me away from it. It's something I've always been fascinated by and I'm sure I have the right motivation to get me through it.

And once more for PM's.

Again, anyone willing to take a couple minutes to let me interview them, I will greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

You need 25 posts, not 5. They have to be a certain length and different than posts you have made before, so you can't just copy and paste.
