Resume Advice to Newbys
Good morning guys n gals:
To drag this thread back onto Advice for Newby's, it's pretty interesting watching the CP's blood pressure rise at the moment.
A lot of resumes are now coming across the desk which state MEA, SEA, and total time, and that's about it.
While this complies with Part 61, it is utterly useless to a CP trying to sift through the 50 resumes (and that's just from this week). To help your resume climb to the top of the pile, please specify your hours on each aircraft type (ie C182, C206, C210 - etc).
While CASA may accept 400 TT SEA, the insurance company will not. Insurance companies always require total time, on type (and type is make & model specific. One of the guys who has just joined us has 1500 hours (500 multi), and yet still needs to do 10 hours ICUS on a C206 to meet the insurance requirements).
So do yourself a favour, take a minute to specify it in your resume, and help yours stand out from the pack.
