You're probably right about Frontier as I don't think anyone has gotten an interview there yet. I know some have tried, including a pilot who lives there and who's dad used to work for the old Frontier. What we're hearing overall though from hiring recruiters is pure-jet time in not a big deal. However PIC time is everything.
