It's always difficult to sense whether someone is being aggressive on forums, just seems to me Skyman is sounding off about the frustration of the job market. He's not the first and certainly wont be the last for several years to come. I qualified in 2000 and did my training on the back of the so called "Pilot shortage". Despite all my attempts I'm still searching and wont give up.

Whichever way you want to look at it, this industry is a very closed one and the ones who do get jobs by just sending there CV's in, are few and far between. Let's face it, unless you network, get a recommendation, do a instructor rating or pay for a type rating, your chances of landing that first position are very remote.

Skyman can I suggest you go on one of these interview courses ie AOT. It may just help you that little bit in your outlook.
