Its a funny old game this job hunting business. Why is it that in Australia you have to do all of the above to compete for a job flying a single engine Cessna and yet it never happens overseas where 250 hour newly graduated cadets pilots walk into the right hand seat of big jets in Asia and Europe without having to go on their knees to lick boots and wash hangar floors, wash planes and pull drinks at a local bar.
But those cadets end up having no stick and rudder skills and no appreciation for what it it takes to be an aviator.
