I’m actually aircrew doing contract flying throughout the world. I have an annual work contract with one company, which is considered full time seasonal, bank statement showing income, proof of residence in country where I applied.

They actually sent a request in for the professional profile. Show that you have the funds to hang out in Thailand promoting yourself for work outside Thailand. But like always each embassy is different.
