Now, Georgia ... well, to bad.

How could you be that wordy, if you just graduated from college?SeaLord said:I went to the local library, grabbed a bunch of books on resumes and completely rewrote the one I had been using from college. Its very simple and concise, and I utilized 'bullets' insteads of paragraphs. Easy to read in the hopes that a pilot recruiter won't immediately trash it because its too long and wordy.

All employers are looking for specific things. You need to make it as easy as possible for them to find them. One of the problems is that each operator has different hot buttons they are looking for. For a standard resume, you need to cover as many of the possible items you can. Radio permit and passport are two items that many pilots leave off their resumes. And in the past, when I have been responsible for pilot recruiting, I have ignored those resumes that didn't list those items. Break down your times as much as possible. Three is no need to list all the types you have flown. If you know they operate a type aircraft you have time in, it is alright to put your flight time in type in your flight times section. But other than that, they really do not care if you have time in an Erocoupe, if they operate King Airs. What they do care about is what types of aircraft you have worked. In other words, what types of aircraft have you used to make money in. So list those in your employment section.
