Meh, US Airways has Hired a lot of folks recently with zero TPIC time, United has already hired a few. I don't think it's as important as it used to be considering the 2 year upgrades at the regionals has been gone for a while.
As far as the Majors go, or Nationals whatever you call them, I was hired at Spirit without, Jetblue hires without it, so does Virgin America.
