Well try 1977 to 1985 That was a tough time for new pilots. You didn't get a shot at any kind of twin with less that 2500 hours in the logbook and 500 hours Multi. Its where you look from. Now I know times are tough, but its now where near the economic problems that existed in the 1976-81 where inflation and intrest rates were double digets. At one point they were getting 21 % for a car note, and CD's were paying 15% and the oil shocks were deeper then then now. It going to take bit of work to find a job, nothing new. You should be looking and making a list while in flight school, you need to think about it way before, you have that Certificate or Lic. in your pocket.
