Would a letter of recommendation from a retired Delta captain be considered an internal recommendation?

Good question. If I see a CP wandering around on a holiday weekend, I'll ask.Would a letter of recommendation from a retired Delta captain be considered an internal recommendation?

My only recs were from 2 retired pilots.

I was told this by the manager of hiring, who almost in the same breath mentioned they weren't going to be hiring for a while (over a year ago) so it seems of value to me to update very often.They do in fact like to see your app updated every 30 days?

Good info, I've been telling guys to update often and no one believes me. The response is often "but they 're not hiring?" It's such an easy way to show desire and dedication. I guess there are guys and gals who do what it takes and there are others who just sit around and complain when others receive interview emails.
Don't even get me started on this one...

Come on I want to hear it!
Plenty of people are listening, they just ain't complainin'.I'm really a broken record on this stuff but nobody liss'nin yo.
True story. I was in the lounge in EWR a few weeks ago and there was just myself and another pilot who was about to DH (deadhead, not that godforsaken "darling hubby") back to MSP.
The other pilot took a telephone call from a friend in MSP who is part of the whole Pinnacle Airlines nightmare and was chewing his ear off about wanting to get out of PCL and perhaps go on to Atlas.
Low and behold, I happen to personally know some people in HQ that could be helpful so I got the two parties in contact with one another 15 minutes later and he started the day with angst about PCL and ended the day with an interview at his dream job.
...Because he reached out.
He had no idea that when he called his friend to bitch about wanting out, that only a few feet away was a person who may hold the key to that actually being able to take place.
These opportunities happen multiple times, every day.
EVERY DAY.
Hell, missing a nonstop out of ORD to MCO one day and going through CVG was the opportunity which got me to Southernjets because the line check airman just happened to read my website that morning and heavens to murgatroid, here that kid is on my Jumpseat.
Keep it updated, keep it positive and talk every day about what you want to do and where you want to go. You never know who is watching, listening or just waiting for an opportunity to say, "Hey, I can help"
