LoL.... its all about contacts and networking and being in right spot at right time. I have never received a job via purely a resume being sent out cold. There is alot of legwork involved and if you are lucky you can strike gold.

Realistically, low-time golden wonders are a dime a dozen out there so its more a question if your personality fits in with the rest of the usually small team. A captain I started flying Citations with told me that the easy bit was teaching me to fly the damn thing (my first job.. CE500 F/O with 350tt) but more importantly could he stand sitting next to me for several hours.

Nothing is impossible, my old company hired a 400 hour newbie as copilot on a Challenger 604.. first jet/multicrew for the guy aswell !
