Same with the other guy who asked about a checkride failure: Just like there is no magic combination of hours that guarantees you will get hired, there’s really not a particular blemish that will outright prevent you either.
There are far too many variables, how long has it been, how many other successful checkrides have you had before and since, what was the nature of the failure (just outside PTS or did you violate a reg or jeopardize safety).
Best thing you can do is be honest, and do you best to get in front of a chief at one of the events to put a face and some background to what happened.
To me these types of questions are moot...... you could have 100 guys on here tell you it’s hopeless/pointless, but are you going to be the type who gives up?
