One seniority number could be the difference between having a job and being furloughed.

It could be the difference between being a captain and being a first officer.

Most pilots don't understand what career opportunities are available in the world of aviation.

They're making career decisions based on advice from friends or posts on internet forums.

Meaning they are taking huge risk with their livelihood without having all the details.

This podcast was created to help you understand the aviation industry so you can find your dream job.

Let's get ready for pushback.

Here's your host and my dad, Nick Fialca. Hey, pilot, welcome to

Ready for Pushback solo style today with me, Nick Fialca. I'm your host. If it's your first time,

welcome. I'm stoked you're here. And if it's not your first time, well, I'm glad you're back. That's a great

thing. I hope you told a friend and they're listening as well and it's their first time.

Today's topic is all about afterwards. After you get that conditional job offer, what can you expect?

Well, first off, go have a great night. You're going to be so happy,

so exhausted. You probably are going to be flying back to wherever you live because there's a high

likelihood. You don't live in the town where the company has a headquarters, but man, you just did a

great thing. And I am super proud of you. So you probably are going to send me a text

and a picture of your C.JO in front of your pilot selection sign with the company logo on it and all

that good stuff. And you're going to call the people important to you and tell them and then go burn it down,

go have some fun. Don't burn down too much now. Don't get stupid. Maybe a little bit. But after that,

it's time to get to work. Wake up. Shake it off. Time to get to work. Because the speed at which

you are able to be offensive in your pursuit of this company and provide them

all of the information they need and hustle the sooner you are going to be in class.
