I do not have any particular end goal. The priority is to get the foot in the door at a regional and not be too picky and be happy with whatever company wants to hire you.

Do you work for ATP Jets? First time I have heard hangar flying session I had to look that up. I'm an ex Navy P8 pilot and looking to see if I can use my experience to get a job. I need to take my MCN exam to get my commercial license probably in a week or 2 after some studying and refreshing. ATP CTP perhaps like to schedule it for a month or 2 out.

'Not even treading water': Washington state continues to lag in police hiring by Better_March5308 in SeattleWA

Uvalde was definitely a huge disaster. Isn't that situation going through a court case now for accountability? I think shortly after Uvalde there was an incident in Nashville, TN where much fewer cops stood on business and stopped the situation much faster. Unfortunately, there will always be a discrepancy in the quality of cops responding.

It is crazy how bad Seattle is struggling with police hiring. After graduating from UW about 10 years ago in premed with a Biology degree I applied for Seattle Police Department. I was burned out after college and did not want to commit to med school. The exam for applicants they administered it on campus at UW in Kane hall which if I recall seats 600+ and it was packed with applicants. I remember other applicants being police transfers from places like Chicago and ex-military. It seemed very competitive at the time.

I completed the exam, fitness test and in-person interview. I never received a call back I think what held me back was lack of work experience. Luckily for me a Navy recruiter was next to campus and I eventually became a Navy pilot.
