I can't tell you how frustrating it is to be doing what I consider to be a high school students job, more importantly earning what a high school student would earn, while I have a 4 year degree, a commercial pilots license and a CFI certificate that has never been used and is starting to get extremely stale.
At the very least had I done a degree outside of aviation, perhaps I would be able to get a more effective job for now, not just as a fall back. |
One of the advantages of most of the aviation degrees is you can do just that, get your ratings and build time and the degree at the same time while chasing those jobs.
