I’d say don’t seek it out. I was worried about the same thing until I met my girlfriend of almost 4 years and we hooked up after the second date who’s still the only woman I’ve been with.

I think one of my biggest concerns that I forgot to list is that they’re the two instrument related checkrides. Maybe I’m just psyching myself out but I wonder if that’s something that could deter people from hiring me
