The coin of the realm in the regional world is TPIC time. As soon as people get 1000 TPIC they generally try to go to a major, with the emphasis on 'try'. Majors aren't always hiring, and even if they were hiring, they don't have enough jobs to hire all of the folks at the regionals that are qualified. Many get left behind.
