You will have to do a bit of research about every company you target – you will certainly need the name of whoever does the hiring, and the head of the department you want, if they are different (in most cases, it will be the Chief Pilot or Base Manager, or, in other words, someone with local knowledge). Only go to the personnel department as a last resort, and even then just to ask for the right name(s). You need to know the sort of work they do, the type of customers they have, where they operate, and tailor your initial conversation around it, emphasising the benefits you can bring which cause them the least amount of work. For example, in Canada, one of the first questions you will be asked is if your PPC (Proficiency Check) is current, because it can be transferable between companies if they operate the same machinery, and they won't have to spend money sorting you out. It's almost guaranteed that the next question will concern either a mountain course or long-lining experience, so be prepared. The point is that their requirement for a pilot is to solve a problem, and you need to be the one with the solution, so get their attention, then create the desire to employ you and, more importantly, do something about it. In fact, the sort of telephone conversation a busy Chief Pilot up to the ears in paperwork would like to hear is something like:
“Hi, I’m an Astar pilot with 1500
hours, mountain and longlining
experience, available now.”
Music to the ears. Just adjust it for your own situation, but only get detailed after you start fishing for what they want. If you get asked any question at all, you've got what is known as a "buying signal", but the question will likely come after a short period of silence, which you shouldn't break. Answering apparent brushoffs with further questions should keep the conversation going. If you can introduce the name of somebody already known to them, so much the better.
The Advert
If there is one, it’s usually the last resort for companies who need staff—apart from being outdated anyway, the best jobs are almost always filled by word of mouth, and the ad is placed to satisfy legal requirements. In fact, the way an advert is worded can tell you much about the company you may be working for.
Read what it actually says. If it states definitely something like "must have 500 hours slinging", it means your application will go straight into File 13 (the waste bin) if you don't. On the other hand, another might say that such experience "is desirable" or "is an advantage"; if you score 6 out of 8 on the requirements, then go ahead. In this case, circumstances will determine what happens to your application, for instance whether there is a pilot shortage or not, or whether the Chief Pilot or the Personnel Department actually wrote the advert (Personnel won’t haven't a clue as to what's really required and may have just copied it from somewhere else).
