Flight training can be an uphill slog if you are not instrument proficient. A guy I knew was a pipeline pilot, never flown into Class B, yet instrument current. He never made it through. However, there are plenty of guys that go get some glass time in a Redbird simulator to become instrument proficient, show up and do fine.
Basically, all regionals are hiring if you show aptitude for instrument flight.
