It came up in a round about way in my interview at US Airways and I told the truth. I was able to use the GI Bill to pay for it, it was an opportunity to learn about airline style flying and systems, I needed my ATP anyway and it was an opportunity for a check ride in a controlled environment. He really seemed to like that answer. I was hired. On the other hand, no other major has called so maybe the 737 type is what's preventing the call...
I got mine the same way for the same reasons....interviewed 2 times now (1 major and hired) and it was never even asked. If it had been the answer would have been the same as PRS.
I have yet to hear of anyone in the past year not getting a job because they HAD a 737 type, maybe back in the day but I think those days have pasted.
