You'll need a number of flight hours both in total and in turbine aircraft. I would recommend getting a job as a flight instructor, then find a jet management company. you can locate them here: http://www.legfind.com/SiteMap.aspx?SiteMap=Operators

Many airlines will want to see a minimum of 2,500 total flight hours and 500 to 1,000 hours of turbine time.

Good luck with the career!

A college degree and a pilots license are not the same thing!!!

When you got your high school degree did that allow you to operate a motor vehicle, NO. You had to get a drivers license.

Why don't you try at an aeronautical school that also offers a pilots license as part of the degree program. The best one that I can think of is Emery Riddle.

A degree will help you in advancement, salary and job flexibility !!

Even though airlines are hiring at a younger age, you still need real world time. Plus, you need to be type rated in addition to having logged turbine time. I would suggest flying in the corporate or charter world for a few years to build time.
