Avail yourself of volunteering opportunities in Dubai.......anything to stand out in a still-crowded field. Presumably you've read through the forums to get a grasp on the drastic changes in the hiring process in the US the last 10 years?..

Guess you think they all will be calling.

You didn't mention what your location will be in U S.

Whatever way you choose, please **** EK on your way out as much as possible. Quit in the middle of a trip. Whatever you can do to them is appreciated.

-What is the junior fleet?

Looking for quality of life first, pay second. Also enjoy international flying, and would want to get back to that soon.

Getting an interview first should be your goal
and then take the first offer .

My suggestion

PS .....FedEx and Ups is out of the question due to 5 years residency
