I’m currently flying the 737 at Andrews with 2500TT/600TPIC. Had apps in for 2 years...with no bites so it’s time to make a change and kick into gear.
Have you gotten a 737 type-rating based on your military experience yet?
14 CFR § 61.73 - Military pilots or former military pilots: Special rules.

§ 61.73 Military pilots or former military pilots: Special rules.
(a)General. Except for a person who has been removed from flying status for lack of proficiency or because of a disciplinary action involving aircraft operations, a U.S. military pilot or former military pilot who meets the requirements of this section may apply, on the basis of his or her military pilot qualifications, for:
(1) A commercial pilot certificate with the appropriate aircraft category and class rating.
(2) An instrument rating with the appropriate aircraft rating.
(3) A type rating.
In fact, you probably qualify for a couple of them.
I realize it won’t make a damn bit of difference to anyone who knows anything about the flying you have done, but it often will to the computer that’s scoring which applicants for a human being to look at first.
