I did have my application and resume reviewed and the criticism I received was not enough volunteerism, and achievements. No criminal background, squeaky clean PRIA, and three types, but I guess I'm a little selfish and I never won any awards of note. I've been told that means a lot at legacies. Enough to not be selected.

Something is off... Maybe do a meet and greet at a convention?

1. Have your app reviewed by Judy Tarver, Cage Marshall, etc major app/prep companies
2. Get interview prep
3. Volunteer somewhere. Once a month for 2 hours at the Food Bank, Orphanage, Animal Shelter. PUT it on your resume
4. Attend a job fair, or two, when 1-3 are fullfilled. Not before

Yes this costs money. $1500 ticket to ride the ferry boat to $5M dollar island

incredibily, pilots still refuse to understand this

Good Luck

I am not very good looking, but I keep healthy.

I found out what the issue likely is from a recruiter. Mystery solved.
