Ladies and Gentlemen,

 

I want to get a good gauge on where I stand for fighters in the process so far. Here's my package. What do you guys think? I'm really wanting to get fighters especially because I have time to do so. I'm looking to visit units now but the last few it wasn't allowed. Where do I stand? First interview coming up in New Jersey!  

 

26 YO

Electrical Engineer at top 3 major defense contractor 

Electrical Engineering 2.28 GPA

P98 N98 AA66 V86 Q51

PCSM 97

Private Pilot License 67 hours

2 LOR from CFI's, 1 from supervisor

Looks like my stats a million years ago.  Except change the P98 to P53...... no engineering experience, just the degree, no PPL and no LORs.  😁   That was a lucky pilot slot in ROTC - so, not really the same situation.

Seriously, your stats look like you'd be a solid candidate to be hired by an ANG fighter unit.  Predicting success in training and actually becoming a fighter pilot is pretty difficult, so there's not much more to say on the info you posted.  In the current environment, if you're willing to cast a wide net and you interview well, I would say you have a good shot at getting your foot in the door. 

With those "top 3 DoD contractor" and "top 2 major cargo airline" bullets, I'm thinking they'll make great execs!

Joking aside, best of luck. 

Explain away your GPA by being a stand-up guy and you'll go anywhere you want, my dude. Best of luck.

P.S. Did I mention not being a douche?
