Fancy CVs and cover letters only help by making you feel good that you've approached the whole thing in a professional way (like mum & dad, and the career coach at school taught you). In reality, as this is your first commercial pilot job you are competing with thousands of others, 25-33% who will have much more experience. Even the cutest CV wont help your cause. Harsh reality, but the sooner you realise it the quicker you will discover that there are at least 2 more (very expensive) choices you have to make before you are likely to get employed.
