Even if they say their minimums are 250TT and a commercial multi.... expect something along the lines of 4000+ TT, 1500+ Jet PIC, a 4 year degree, and something that makes you "special" - a good LOR or two, check airman/instructor/chief pilot experience, etc to be whats required to get considered for an interview.

Once hiring starts to ramp up at UA and the other majors with retirements starting, the minimums will probably slowly go down to match the available candidates. Though, I'd expect it to be quite a while for a run of the mill non-tpic holder to get looked at by a major. Just too many people that have that right now that you'd be competing with, unless theres something else stellar and unique on your resume.
