career in the industry
I am currently in my last year of an Aviation (operations management) degree at university in Australia. I would love to end up in a major international airline but i realise that i need experence in the industry before any of them would consider me.
Would looking for a job in a GA company help me at all or would i be better off focusing on small RPT airlines?
Alternatively, would doing another degree (say Law, for example) help me at all?
Thanks heeps for any advice that u could give>

I would recommend trying to get work with a handling agent in your spare time to gain experience. Although i would advise against working with larger airlines as the pay is very poor and you get treated like dirt
However if you can score a job with GA FBO/Handling agents you will not only gain great experiance on both the ramp but in all areas of a/c ops, and even better loads of contacts to score that first job and i found a better career in GA and have little wish to fly for a major airline.
give it a go all the best with the future

You should try www.aviationjobsearch.com. I found a job using this site.
Much better than sending your CV to prospective employers or agencies. I got a job (current job) after using this site.
