I have about 1400hrs with 460hrs of multi time (Prop driven) and currently working towards my AAs. I only have a valid IATRA as of now and no degree/diploma. No commercial experience either. What are the chances of Jazz considering someone these days with my kind of experience??
Any info/guidance on this would be awesome. Thanks!
In today's aviation situation, smaller companies would have swooped in to hire someone of your experience. have you applied with any of them? or are you ignoring those steps and get directly into jazz?
hmm.... you must be real picky..
Jane, I was hired around the same time as you but with commercial experience. It's worth a shot, but you may have to fly for a year or so at a smaller carrier. FO on a King Air would for a year would be enough I'd say to have a good shot at Jazz or another regional.
But... apply for the jobs you want not the ones you think you'll get, so I say go for it. What's the worst that can happen? They say no, and you reapply in a year once you have some commercial experience. You could walk into any right seat of a turbine with that time given the current state of jobs... you might have to leave your home though.
