You will get hired, just be honest and list all of your past mistakes. Time with a good record makes you more marketable. United has said it explicitly, they want honesty...it's better to hire a candidate that can own up to their history than to hire someone with skeletons in the closet.

Thanks!

Yes, all LOR's were internal.
My app was in file since Feb '16.
No job fairs.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Cheers!

I just retired from the Army
3400tt
2000 rotary
1400 multi engine fixed wing turbine
650 multi engine fixed wing turbine pic
Bachelors

99% of my fixed wing time is in King Airs, most of that overseas in Afghanistan. I acknowledge that I most likely need to build some experience in a regional in order to get a call from a preferred carrier.

Do any of the regionals out there look better than others on an app/resume?

Thanks!

Yes, definitely. And those same regionals will pay you more. Right now the best places to go are likely Endeavor, Envoy/Piedmont/PSA, or Skywest. The AA regionals offer a flow but with your experience you won't need to wait for a flow.

I am retired USN with mostly fixed wing turboprop and I chose Endeavor but I think any of those carriers I listed carry a good reputation for your resume. Do your homework...good luck.

Good luck!
