How To Skip Trash Cans ️ For Recruiter Hands | Land The Job You Want

Stop Doing This:

"Hi everyone - I am looking for a new role and would appreciate your support. Thank you in advance for any connections or opportunities you can offer."

Instead...Do This ✔️:

• Write down every outside the cockpit skill set you have
• Figure out what problems you can solve...other than flying
  • Project Management?
  • IT?
  • Bookkeeping?
  • Technical Writing?
  • Instructional Design?
• Get on LinkedIn
• Search for companies that might need these skills
• Target pilots, HR, Directors, and Chief Pilots with comments to learn more about how these problems are negatively affecting them
• Post about how you’ve solved problems like this in the past
• Telling quick stories works best. Companies are always looking for problem solvers...
• Follow this format when telling your stories
  • What was the problem?
  • Why did it exist?
  • How did you solve it?
• Repeat this process over and over; you’ll be getting interviews while others are firing off resumes into the trash can

LET'S TALK

91% of recruiters are on LinkedIn daily while only 43% of pilots use the platform.

You know emailing resumes doesn’t work so why keep on doing it ❓

✔️ Recruiters hire pilots they know will solve their problems and ease their pain points.

❌ They don’t hire pilots who email in resume after resume.
