You'll still need to meet the minimums no matter what. One guy in my class used to throw bags for UPS. He did it for 6 years or so; while in college and a few years afterward. He felt like his interview was a very positive experience because one of the interviewers used to do the same thing and they "shared some memories" from that time. Not sure if it really helped him or not but he did get hired. Of course, he also met all the minimums, had close to 6,000 TT, all part 91 (never flew part 121 or 135 - also only had civ. flight time).

I'd say go for it and good luck!
