Success = moving from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm, at least that's what I keep telling myself.

HR: Tell me about a time you flew with a crew member you didn't get along with.

Applicant: I did not have sexual relations with that woman.

I'm just kidding DFW. He's actually right. It can be very difficult to take a questions like that and spin them into a positive light, but those are the questions that can show underlying personality flaws.

LOL. Well I guess that has a hint of inspiration to it

I flew for a wet-lease operator contracting out to regionals in Europe (Fokker 50 and Dash-8) and listed it on my resume as it was, 3500hr Turbine, 1600hr Turbine PIC. Did not have any issues applying in the US.

JSF, I realize this whole process is frustrating, but hang tough. It took me four years of applying before I got my first interview. Barring anything weird, the majors will be hiring quite a few pilots in the next decade. Stay positive, be yourself, and be honest. You'll get a gig that suits you.
