Ask the recruiter how fast you can reasonably expect to actually fly and start building 121 time. As discussed currently it's still around 9 month for most new hires.
Think about how much closer to upgrade you will be at other airlines.
Know your value as a professional pilot. Do not settle for substandard QOL and pay.
If potential new hires started interviewing the recruiters like you suggest, I'd wager we'd see change real quick. Recruiting has more of a voice in SBY than ALPA ever will. (That's not a dig at ALPA, that's just reality)
