Dear Snowflake(s) ,
Did your Fathers never teach you how to get a Job?
I know things have changed...So, do your online app. Great.
Now, here's the Old School Part:
> Have you sent a physical Resume' ?
> Have you networked to find K4 guys that you can talk to ?
> Have you found the number to call in YIP and then made yourself KNOWN (without being a pest ) ?
> Have you followed up diligently on the above on a regular basis ?
Much as Real Estate is : " Location, Location, Location".
Job Acquisition is: " Contact, Contact, Contact. "
Be creative and use your Head.
I never had a job that I was even remotely qualified for ( until the last of Three maybe ) I just kept keeping in contact until they hired me.
Good Luck!

I've read the last 200 pages and it has a lot of good information since the new contract. I think I would really enjoy going to different countries and working on the application now. My questions are:
If offered a job, do new hires get a choice between the 767 or 747 or should you take the one offered? Seems like totally different lifestyles for each.
How much deadheading can one reasonably expect other than to and from home? Is there much overseas deadheading or do you generally begin and end your trip in the US? I thought a read a few pages back that you don't get much choice when it comes to your deadheads. Do they get you on full service carriers or will they put you on Spirit or Ryan Air type airlines for the shorter flights? If you're loyal to a frequent flyer program can you request to stick with a certain airline or alliance (ie One World/Star Alliance)? Or do you have to just take the flight the travel department gives you? I figure if I lose flight benefits, getting airline status would be the tradeoff.

Kalitta Air LLC -- AKA Connie -- 747s and 767s
Kalitta Charters -- Lears and Falcons
Kalitta Charters II -- 727, 737 and DC-9s
There is no flow between Kalitta Air..and the Charters ops...

No disrespect to HercDriver, but there is Kalitta history behind the multiple certificates. And, there are actually 5 of them. 3 different 135 and 2 different 121.
Once a long time ago, invaders from the dark side came and took away one of the certificates. And, back then there was only one. So, after Kalitta was lifted to the light again, Connie made a vow to never be exposed to the dark side again in a way that would cause the airline to cease to exist. That is the real deal behind multiple certificates.
