I have had a few people look over my resume and they said it is lacking two things if I have any hopes of getting hired. 121 time (all of my flying has been 91 and gov't contract) and Jet time. I would like to get some opinions. I by no means have SJS and enjoy flying props. The question is if I have to take a bit of the turd sandwich and go to a regional does it matter if it is props or jets?

I don't want to start a regional bashing thread, just asking if the average Joe can get hired at an LCC with only turboprop time. I know there is always the exception that had 39 hours in a 172 that gets in but I am thinking more the rule than the exception.
