Default Obtaining an airline job in USA after working

I have recently commenced sending resumes to airlines here in the US for the first time since spending 10 years of flying in Asia with the last 3 in China.

Jetblue for example require a:

"...ten (10) year background check"

I assume that this is a background check of flying history verifying employment and incident/accident events etc.

Can anybody here who has returned from a China contract to an airline job in the US shed some light on this process and how it works.

My concern is that my employer in China basically does not communicate with the outside world about you once you leave the job. This is common and several pilots are trying to extract information from them such as letter of employment or letter of no incident/accident without any luck at all.

Has anybody here moved from China back to the US and jumped these hurdles before.

We have about 5-6 guys here at Netjets that flew in Asia... No problem

I'm sure Netjets got a hold of those companies for background info

Contact a moderator or admin and it can be edited in the future.
Better than starting a new, duplicate thread.
