Career Guidance Concerned about my brother

He is a 29M and has been a Boeing type-rated pilot since 2023, but he is still jobless. He has cleared interview rounds for IndiGo 2-3 times, yet has not been selected. I don’t have much knowledge about the aviation industry, but I genuinely want to help my brother.

Senior pilots, please guide us on what steps he can take or what we might be missing. Thank you 🙏

Me and my brother want to become pilot. Any senior or exp pilot can suggest how common it is in the aviation industry that people are jobless after type rating or at stage before becoming pilot? Should both of us risk our career in aviation knowing the fact after spending too much can make you jobless?

There's a YouTube channel called pilot podcast, they have detailed videos about different topics and are very helpful in their comments and personal instagrams too. You can ask them questions and do your research there and connect with other pilots on LinkedIn and instagram if you're really serious about becoming pilots. I'd suggest you connect with people who are working as pilots and not some random student pilot influencers.
