Climbto350.com is it worth it?

[sega]

Ok guys, I am looking around to see whats out there as far as work goes. Is climbto350.com worth the $49 a year? To me it kinda seems like a rip off to pay money just to view job ads. On the other hand there doesnt seem to be alot of web pages out there that covers as much as climbto350 in one place.

I know $49 isnt that much money but its just the point of paying.

So whatcha think?

I've found two jobs on climbto350. One as an A&P, a couple of years ago, and also my current flying job. I like it.

 

[FlightTraker]

I have had three job offers just from having my resume listed on 350. And one interview (local) the day after I sent my online resume.

 

[1973Arrow]

Only got 'bottom feeder' offers. "Come pay us to fly our (insert name of aircraft here)." Can't say I was really impressed.

Unless you got esp I would recommend it you cheap 'bahstaad'. I also recommend Planejobs as I have seen better quality jobs there.

Climbto has worked for both of us, a captain and F/a team, if anything, if new and using it, make an organized book of every name, phone and contact you come across. my boy, got responses within one hour of submitting the resume, he is a contractor.

I got a response from a swiss company!

I got a good freight job through the website, and have had a couple decent companies contact me for an interview. Planejobs.com is also good; more GA jobs are posted there.

If you think it is a rip-off, then don't use the service. Go out and dig through all of the different places where all of those jobs are posted. That is the problem with this industry; pilots step on $20s to pick up nickels. I'm sure you'd gladly plunk down $50 to apply at a major, but to pay $50 for a years worth of great leads is a rip-off?? Don't pay, just keep going to the sites that have few to no jobs for free and let us all know how that "new" job works out for you.

I clicked on your payment button, It only requested & charged me $1.00, I am sorry your software is having a problem if your not going to honor what your web sites pay pal web accept button generated please refund my $1.00 that I was charged and I will go elsewhere!

Thanks.

Now, will he honor his web authoring mistake? I suggest every one quickly sign up while he has his payment setting set at $1.00 Bet he will fix it within a few hours. I Will inform on what happens! looks like climbto350.com has their act together and may be worth the $49.00.

There is nothing wrong with our software. Somehow you have circumvented paying the fee. We have notified both PayPal and our IT Dept. As you know PayPal takes a dim view of fraud.

If you wish to be a member the the fee is $59 or $79 if you have uploaded your resume.
