So my vacation here in Europe is coming to an end. Now when I head back I have to start the dreaded job-hunting. What do you guys think is the best option:
1) Dispatcher: Looks like the only way to get my foot in the door with actual dispatch experience is working at one of these less-than-recommended regionals. There are a few regionals I would really want to start with but they've recently hired and it will probably be a while before they hire again. I'm in no particular rush and want to make sure the first company I join wont be a mistake that I regret 6 months down the road.
2) Flight following: a possibility but not my first choice.
3) Crew scheduling: I know it's different than dispatching but I would consider if it was a great company with the hopes of eventually moving to the dispatch department.
Thoughts?
