2011 - Modular? Did you get a job?
I need cheering up for Christmas, so I would be interested to hear whether the jobs market for modular frozen ATPL graduates is as bad as it looks. I am not implying that it's all rosy for integrated folks, I just don't care about you!
So, if you got your first full-time flying job this year...
1) What is the job?
2) Did you have to fund any additional training up front to get it?
3) How did you apply for the job?
4) Did you have any contacts on the inside who helped your cause?
5) Did you have previous work experience/relevant skills which helped your cause?
6) How many hours total did you have?
7) Where did you train?
As much or as little detail in the answers as you like!
Merry Christmas, here's to a mass retirement of ageing pilots in 2012!
