Wannabe ACMI/freight pilot
I'm at the regionals looking for a place I can stay for either a while or long time, Atlas has been my goal, but applying for years and 2 guys walk my resume in, I haven't heard anything yet. Even went to the job fair. Right now I'm at 2600TT but with 0 121 PIC time. My dad is at K4 and will try to get me an interview despite not having 5000Tt.
Applied to National, Centurion, Sky Lease and Southern, but nothing yet. I'd be happy to sit and do IRO for a few years. I've called the HR depts. at all of the places forementioned, but either voicemail or no call back.
Any suggestions as of how I can get my foot into the door? I've jumpseated on Atlas/Polar and K4 a few times, but still nothing.

Your lack of TPIC time is likely holding you back from the airlines you have applied to. Before I upgraded I could never understand what the big deal was about PIC time. Once I became a Captain I understood. Potential employers are looking for those that have already proven they can be the PIC.
