I was looking to get the opinion of the new hires (especially military) on going to get a 737 NG type or possibly Airbus 320 rating to set myself apart. My targeted companies United, Delta, Southwest, and Fedex.

Is it worth it in today's hiring environment to use my benefits for the type to maybe get in sooner or just wait it out? If so 737NG or Airbus 320? Lastly recommendations, I'm currently looking at CPT (crew pilot training).
