[QUOTE=Check Complete;1761575]Nope, I know of 2 guys that got on with UAL, one about 10 months ago and one leaving this week. Neither had any TPIC but they both busted their ass to get the interview and are like able types. Actually I've heard having a bunch of TPIC can be a killer right now and those with a bunch are being advised to reduce the number submitted on their resume?

You knowing 2 FOs who have been hired by UA hardly disproves my point. I also know 2 and we're probably talking about the same two people. I probably know over 50 captaons who have gone to the majors recently. PIC may not be required but the odds certainly aren't in your favor without it. I think it's false to tell people they don't need it.
