Buy the rating, get the Job!

Hi!

I'm Looking to buy a B737 rating or similar from any carrier that will offer a job afterwards!

Just wondering if anyone knows any companies that might consider this offer.

Hey bud, it's not easy to get a job with just a 737 type-rating without hands on experience. Airlines want pilots with license and basically PIC flying hours if you are looking for an opportunity in SE Asia.

Bokomoko is right. You may be able to buy a ppc for a light to medium twin and get a job but when it comes to airliner jets, you are definitely going to need experience on it. Do you have any jet time?

Cheers

No jet time (Sadly). I had a look at www.eaglejet.net (http://www.eaglejet.net) and I was just pondering on the idea of buying a rating and doing some time on a particular aircraft. Is it a good idea? I've got 700TT, 90 Multi. I'm getting promoted to fly left hand seat on a light piston twin in New Zealand. Anyway I'm still keeping an open mind for better opportunities!
