I’m sorry to hear that your interview process was not up to your standards. I do want to clarify the fact that Williams Aerial does not employ survey pilots. Williams Aerial is composed of a staff department and a photogrammetry department. We do however work closely with companies that do employ survey pilots. Becoming a survey pilot is a great opportunity for low time pilots. It provides that stepping stone in one’s career which helps boost flight hours and accelerate one's career in the aviation industry taking them to the next level when typically it could take twice as long. Pilots don’t become survey pilots for the pay, they become survey pilots to build a career in aviation. Based upon your interview response I would like to take some time and assist you with some professional development.
1. Was the individual you spoke with truly unprepared or was it that your resume did not have enough quantifiable information to talk about?
2. Did your resume reflect any work history involving aviation jobs or was it just your TT?
I’ll assume that based on your comments that you don’t have an aviation-related job. Even if you would have had the right company and posted these negative comments, I would still recommend some self-reflection. Sounds like there is a little self-entitlement going on there. Anyway, we wish you the best of luck. If you struggle to find a “satisfactory” pilot job like flying a king air, I hear there are several McDonalds in GA that is paying 15/hr.
