For some airlines, sure. However, in the case of Atlas, not so much. But that's just based on my experience, the experience of those I know, as well as info gathered in the other Atlas thread.

Atlas has interviewed/hired pilots with corporate/domestic freight/RJ backgrounds who don't have any heavy time, nor any oceanic crossings. They've ALSO turned down pilots with said backgrounds.

Atlas has interviewed/hired pilots with heavy/widebody/int'l experience both in the civilian as well as military world. They've ALSO turned down pilots with said backgrounds.

I could be wrong, but I don't think so. I think it's pretty safe to say that the info Atlas requests is used to help tally the candidates overall "score" when selection criteria time comes. As well as the "thanks but no thanks" letters get mailed.
