Yeah right!!!
If I recall, HAL has that desktop trainer that they make applicants fly to check their scan and basic instrument skills as well as CRM. In my opinion, it's way more sensitive and touchy than a simulator.
I think most airlines don't do a sim eval anymore because they are getting high time guys and gals who have been stagnated at their current jobs for 5 years and can most likely fly-a sim eval at this point is a waste of money. I also think these airlines are hiring a personality. Anybody can be taught to fly an ILS in training-nobody can be taught a different personality. Just my .02.
