Has anyone signed up / paid for this service?
Guess you can upload your resume/cover letter if you pay for this fasttrack service.
 
Don't waste your money...

They used to have new jobs posted, but haven't done a whole lot in the way of "entry-level" stuff in awhile. I think they're owned by the same folks who own aviationcareer.com cause the posts are identical, as is the format.

My advice, don't waste any more money on that site. I bought a year subscription almost a year ago, and now all the "new" jobs seem to be posting on aviationcareer.

Best advice, just network. Employers will say "we're taking a risk hiring someone from the internet, etc." We're taking a risk banking on going to work for someone unknown as well. I got two flying jobs this way...one was crappy equip., second one, the owner never paid me. I've had subscriptions to climbto350, planejobs, avianation, and aviationcareer. Out of all those sites, I got alot of rejection, and little satisfaction.

In hindsight, I should've bought a hooker instead...atleast I walk away happy w/empty pockets.

Try the "free" sites if you wanna hunt, or this board. Anyone that wants more money out of you is just continuing the cycle of soaking new pilots.

Good luck, and happy hunting.
 
Employer

When we have a job, we post it at AEPS, Climbto350, Avianation, and Planejobs.

They provide a service but I would make this point. People respond all the time and do not have a clue how they come across when they try and take the easy way of just hitting a button.

A good cover letter that details how you meet my criteria with the resume attached is what it takes for me to open the site or attachment. As example, ad says we want Lear Jet 55 pilot == a cover letter that says I have a Lear Jet 55 type and 1000 hours in one is so much better than me opening and seeking to find that rating on these pre done sheets.
