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.
