What’s up guys!. Since most of the people work or have worked in Alaska, I guess there’s not better place to ask about operators/Jobs up there.
It seems that Hageland won’t look at me anymore after getting a class somewhere else back when I had 500h. I think I applied some 27 to Grant Aviation and no luck either. Same with Ryan and Bering.
I have 800h right now, and some 900-950h by the end of January, which when I leave my job here in PR. That number includes around 500 multi, 155 night, 800 PIC and 650h XC aprox.
I’m open to any advice/positive criticism and any idea for my next step. So feel free to share it here or PM me if you prefer so.
Thanks and safe flights.

Thanks for the advice
I always thought that was the way to do things up there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

It's tough, I know, but just keep trying. All it takes is one call to end your dry spell.

IFR rating required?
For those working at Hageland...is an IFR rating required to get hired if all I have is a wet commercial? I understand the progression as far as Caravan sic, then to 207 pic VFR, and would ultimately like to earn a Captain position in a Caravan. Wonding if I could get hired without it and once I get my foot in the door, work on the IFR rating on my own time? Or, hold on to my application until I get the rating?
Thank you in advance for any input!

I don't work for them but, I am 99.9% certain, without IFR rating you won't get hired since it restricts you to 50nm flights only. Might try skydiving, that seems like one of the gigs that are possible without IFR Rating.
