61.64 is very easy to qualify just about anybody under... have a look at 121 Appendix H, and what a Level C can be used for as part of a sim training program for Part 121. Do they only hire guys who qualify for Level C sims?
That's:
3. Initial pilot-in-command training and the certification check when the pilot—
a. Is currently serving as second in command in an airplane of the same group;
b. Has a minimum of 2,500 flight hours as second in command in an airplane of the same group; and
c. Has served as second in command on at least two airplanes of the same group.
