I have done that, Working on my masters degree right now, current, military veteran, Director of Safety, volunteer activities etc. Have had people look over my app as well, couple of small changes were made but nothing major. Just a little frustrating when 2 and 3000 hour pilots are getting hired left and right and I just can't get the phone call. Little frustrating, if you know what I mean.

No. DL posted that they AVERAGED 7000+ for pure civilian candidates.
TPIC? Put down additional duties? Flight department? Training? Safety? Union?
Been stuck in one seat? Had the option to change but didn't? I'd change a/c. Generates a new type rating, online app update, and it shows that you put yourself in front of an examiner again, recently, and passed.
You're fighting an computer program.

How many times have you officially stood in front of the recruiting teams and formally handed them a resume?
Does it hurt? No. Does it help? Yes. How much? They don't say.
There's plenty of people who've been hired who've said "I went to X(3,4,5,6)" job fairs. Highest I heard was 17. Sounds crazy. At a major now, ink still wet on his CA upgrade when he got hired. He says the effort was worth the reward. Retires <100.

This seems to only apply to DAL and over 8kTT. There are always plenty of exceptions but your odds seem to decrease significantly past that mark. I don't know the reason but I've heard rumors about how the high time applicant is not as easily molded into their company culture.

I challenge anyone to find a direct quote from someone DIRECTLY involved in hiring that confirms this...
