If (and that's a big if), this is a serious post...... (But if not, I'm sure someone else out there might get some assistance!)

Try the Pacific Islands- Solomons, Fiji, Vanuatu, Samoa etc. You'll get a coey job on something like a Twotter or CASA with a bare CPL and MECIR in most of those places.

Twotter coey twas my first job, so a turbine gig straight off the bat isn't impossible.
Just recognise that unless you stick it out for a while at an employer that gives you such a start, that you are almost certainly going to have to go 'back' to an entry-level piston twin (310, Bongo etc), maybe even single aswell, to build some command time before ever being considered to fly something like a PA31, C40-something or KingAir!


Little tip, from someone who hasn't been in the game for all that long compared to others, but aviation is a tough road. Nothing really gets handed to you, and don't expect it to either. Hard work and determination, and not being an idiot, will take you far.
Get out there and have fun. Jet jobs aren't always the best thing out there.
