Sorry for the vague/non-specific answer. But I'd venture to guess that it's a factor on the initial screen/sort/rank/rack and stack. It's on the PAQ form, or at least WAS.
"Back in the day", and way before this hiring spree at 5Y, there were pilots hired that hadn't flown in a long time. But granted, many of them were military, retired, and rode out the last years of their mil careers at non flying/staff jobs. But we're in a different era now, and they have THOUSANDS of resumes to choose from.
And keep in mind, there's PLENTY of them with 121/ACMI/Boeing/heavy experience that are current. But keep applying, ya never know.
