How are things looking for this winter?

Post by Ozzydog »

I've been looking for a first officer post in Calgary for a few months now after I upgraded to my ATP this summer. No luck so far but its been hard for me to get out there since I'm a busy instructor in northern Alberta. I've got 1700hrs and only a handful of Multi PIC. I've also got a BE20 PCC. What do you think my chances are at finding good work in Calgary this winter? I want to find a good company to work for for a long time I'm almost 30 and I want to have a family one day. I'd be greatful for any suggestions or opinions.

Thanks! I've already been to visit them but they are on my list again.

How often is too often to send in a new resume? 6 months?? Doesnt the squeaky wheel get the grease

Try Sunwest. Its a good spot, you'll fly lots and in the long run the money isn't bad either. I saw F/O spots advertised on here very recently.
