I have volunteered for recruiting events (job fairs, interviews, etc.) at several airlines and I know that recruiters study candidates' decision making skills and they want to review decisions made by pilots who're actually in charge of the flight, in other words those who signed their names in the aircraft logbook.

You can use your tutti-fruity pic time all you want but it's not true pilot-in-command time. Sometimes it works and sometimes HR personnel catches this pseudo-legal and yet very creative flight time boosting technique.

Like I said, offer the captain as much water as you can and make sure to log it as pi$$-IC flight time..
