It is always interesting watching the Chief Pilots blood pressure rise, and just pray that you are not the cause.
The current reason for the rise is watching the CP sift through resumes which have been submitted in the past 6 months. The CP telephones, and emails the people of interest that may have a chance at a job. What sends the blood pressure skyrocketing is when there is no reply to the voice message, and no reply to the email.
Here is a word of advice to a newby. If you submit your resume, then obviously you are interested in working for the company. If a CP takes the time to contact you, if your circumstances have changed (you now have a job or you have lost interest entirely or it's a bad time) it takes 2 minutes to phone back and say Thanks, but no thanks. That will be remembered....ignore the email / phone message, and that too will be remembered.
You thought elephants had a long memory? Trust me, a CPs memory is longer....
