Sorry ., I thought the ADM was the head of the Snivel Service. Shows you how much I know about it.

But, old friend, I can certainly get your resume read by The Powers That Be, even if you pooch the interview, or shoot some of them, at least you'll get the interview.

Anybody else need some resume help to compete with . for the top job?

I was wondering what the process is to get your resume update, and what it would cost. Feel free to pm me if you would like. I must be doing something wrong with over 7000hours, 1/2 of it multi turbine, plus tail wheel, charter, aerobatics and much more I would think I would at least get a call back. So I must be doing something wrong. After all, my students are being hired with a fraction of the experience, and often still ask for advice on how systems work from me.

Sounds like a good service - I've seen the letters my company (a small local 703 operator) gets and a lot of them are pathetic. Not the resumes so much as the cover letters - spell check may get the spelling errors (and yet we still see those as well), but the grammar is often horrible. If you suck at writing - seek help; if you don't, you should still get someone to proof-read your letter before you send it out..... Posting on a forum for fun is one thing - who cares about typos and such? But not bothering to do a resume with care indicates to me someone who will not bother to do their pre- and post-flight paperwork carefully. Sure, paperwork is boring, but that's what TC will find fault with on an audit (or should I say "With which TC will find fault " :) Unfortunately, working as a pilot means doing more than just flying the aircraft, and it's all part of being professional

Thanks for the attaboy - I am not performing miracles but a I can get your info, what it is that you are trying to sell, in front of a Chief Pilot and he will have no problem reading it or comprehending what I (you!) are trying to tell him. My job is to keep your information out of the round file; my job is to get you an interview.

Remember: apply for every job you want, not only the ones you think you are qualified for.

Anybody else able to contribute to the "How is it out there?" Thread?

Also, when you PM me, please give me your real name (I promise to not reveal it) so I can keep you all sorted.
