be aware from the start that you
might need 2 or even 3, if you
include a breakdown of your flying
hours. On the one hand, trying to
cut everything down when it won't
get any smaller is stressful, and on
the other, many resume readers
(myself included) find it frustrating
that more information isn't
forthcoming when I want to read it.
The trick is to put the information
you think might be needed on the
first page, and expand it on the
following pages, even if you repeat
yourself (you could also put it in the
covering letter). As a guide, my own
procedure is to go through any list
of resumes with the requirements of
the job in mind, and either highlight
any that are already mentioned, or
write down any that are not, on the
front page as an aid to later sorting.
What is relevant depends on the job,
but it's a fair bet that licences, types
flown, total hours on each and
availablility would be a good start -
you could think of a few more.
Having said that, you should still try
to get the information in as short a
space as you can without leaving
anything out - if you're only going
for a flying job, the tendency to
include irrelevant information
should be avoided, and everyone
knows what a pilot does, so your
resume will be on the technical side,
that is, short, competent and to the
point. Management qualifications (if
you have them) are not important to
somebody who just wants a line pilot
(all the advice here should be read in
this light – you don't have to include
everything). As with all
salesmanship, you're trying to make
it as easy as possible for the
customer, in this case your potential
employer, or at least the poor clerk
in the personnel office who has to
go through all the paperwork before
the interviews. It's worth mentioning
at this point that the clerk's job is to
screen you out, or to discover who not
to interview, so don't bore them too
early, or put things in that might
make them feel uncomfortable and
give them an excuse. If you feel the
need to be more specific, use the
covering letter to get your details in
front of the right person.
Be precise about what you are
applying for. Some people use the
heading Objective, which sounds a bit
woolly, but is actually a sentence or
two telling the reader what job you
want, and what you bring to it.
You need to use quality paper, letter
size and white, and therefore
inoffensive, but this requirement is
really for scanning. Use one side of
the paper only with the script
centralised, with no underlining or
strange typefaces. Leave at least a
one-inch border at the top and
bottom of the page with a good
sized margin on either side. It will

cost a minimal amount to get a twopage
resume wordprocessed
properly and not much more to get a
reasonable number photocopied,
preferably on to the same paper. Use
a spellchecker. Twice.
It should include your career history,
commencing with your present
position and working back about 5
years in detail, the remainder in brief.
The name and town is enough to
identify employers with a brief
description of their activities, if
needed, as helicoptering is a small
world. You may include reasons for
leaving your current position but, as
said above, when people read a
resume they almost always do it with
a highlighter in one hand to mark
relevant passages for later
inquisition, and you can almost
guarantee that this will be a prime
target, so prepare it very carefully.
In Summary, the layout must be
neat, as short as possible, well
spaced and easy to read, with a
positive attitude being conveyed
throughout.
The Interview
Let us first of all establish what the
interview is not. It has nothing to do
with your competence as a
professional, except for the
simulator ride (if one is required).
The mere fact that you've been put
on any list at all, let alone shortlisted,
indicates that your flying abilities are
recognised.
On their side, the interview is really
to see if your face will fit. They are
about to let your personality loose
on their customers and they want to
see if you will help solve the
problem or become part of it. In
other words, you, as an employee,
must create value beyond the cost of
employing you. As far as you are
concerned, it's a chance to see if you
