Colgan should be hiring in the southeast Texas region in the next few months.

 

Nope, you are doomed. you're well ahead of me in regards of experience, hang in there man, something will come along and you can look back to these days and say to yourself "glad I got through that crap storm" good luck

 

I would imagine that all new-hires will go to the Saab and based on the east coast??

 

I imagine Houston Saab will go junior from all the upgrades.

 

Okay man - I was in your shoes a few months ago on hard times.

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO???

 

So here I am I my soapbox . . . . WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO????

Stick with Aviation or leave it? I was in a similar dilema a few months back on hard times, but one of the most important suggestions I can make it education and goal setting. What type of flying do you want to do?

I ran into this about a year ago on trying to get into an Air Ambulance outfit. In order to make myself more marketable (who wants to hire a green 22 year old punk with a Citation type and 1,300 hours?).

I decided to finish my Aviation Administration degree and take on part-time firefighting and EMS in the community. Taking this on and earning EMT and FF helped establish that I was serious about the position and allowed me to gain entry a potential full-time job.

If you want to do coporate - try starting off in a business professional position and flying part time.

All I got bud - hope it works. Just keep trying - it can't be a crappy economy forever.

 

Also you can't qualify for traffic school if you hold a CDL.

 

I agree get a job slinging boxes for UPS or FEDEX and get back in th cockpit even if it is just pt91 flying. Hopefully we have turned this corner. IT seems as thought companies are either hiring or ramping up to hire. GOOD LUCK!!
