Default PIC vs. SIC question.

I'm flying (PIC) in a King Air 300 in the Middle East. I might get an offer as an FO/A&P on a G III in a part 135 outfit. (This would be my first jet type rating.)

My question, which "looks better" on a resume for FX, UPS, Atlas...etc. Thanks in advance.

As far as fdx goes:

•Candidates for jobs involving handling or access to U.S. mail cannot be considered for employment if they have resided outside the U.S., Guam or Puerto Rico for more than (6) six months during the last (5) years prior to today's date, other than the following verifiable exceptions: active duty in the U.S. Uniformed Service; trailing spouse or dependent of someone working for the U.S. government (military or civilian); missionary; student attending school in a foreign country; Peace Corps participant; employee of a U.S. based employer/company or other extraordinary circumstances.

Don't even look at another job that puts you in the right seat instead of left until you get at least 1000 turbine PIC. After that, see if you can get a IP/EP gig at your company to enhance your resume.

You can have all the type ratings you want, but neither UPS nor FedEx will look at you without the 1000 TPIC.

Thank you SB. I'm guessing the same applies for the majors?

Also, with my work being classified. How does FX/UPS/Atlas validate my times? Will my logbook suffice?

Logbook is/was the source. Mine was a fancy printout of my electronic logbook. Non of my flying was classified however there was no other proof for most of it besides what was printed out and I signed to be true.
