Hello I was working in an airlines company and after few months of working I had to leave my job due to a family emergency. It has 2 years I’m doing any job and I’m taking care of my family business but I want to join again as it was dreams to work in aviation industry but I’m not able to lift my up again and it’s becoming very difficult. I’ve applied but I’m not getting calls from any of the company’s and this making me more stressed. Can you suggest what is the best I can do now?

Ans: Hi!!

If it's your dream to fly again, then please be at it... this passion itself should keep you from giving up. Groom yourself, do whatever it takes to be fit, keep your chin up, you have cracked the interview before and worked in this industry, this is your strength. Your time away was for family reasons and remember the lessons you learnt from being away from flying. Be honest in your interviews and show your reasons for joining back. Relook at your resume and then reapply....
Work on yourself, keep your goals realistic and have a positive outlook towards your dreams.

All the very best!!
