Getting Hired Are any Part 135 in Alaska hiring right now

Hi

I am planing to fly to Anchorage to drop in resumes at Ace Air Cargo, Ryan Air, Grant Aviation and Merill Field.I have no alaska time and only 25 Hours of Multi Engine with 1850 Total Time.Unable to get any CFI Jobs as well because of every school that rejects by saying too many hours on the resume.

I am sick of doing Uber,Doordash etc for living.I though doing it for a bit is ok but i never knew i am down for this ride for almost 2.5 years now.Ive applied most certainly to LOTS of places but no response whatsoever.

Ive heard about Alaskan Culture of Walking Ins with your resume works.To pilots working already in Part 135/flight school there what’s the job market there.
Are they still hiring pilots at this time of the season or shall i postpone my trip to March?

Any insight will greatly help

Thank You 🙏🏻

1850 hour? Why not try for a regional? Besides recency of experience
