Unfortunately it is clear that you are not in this thread for any useful reason other than to pander your off-kilter version of how things should be logged.
For others actually reading this thread for real information (if there is anyone), then take the advice offered in many posts about how to portray yourself in the interview and how to follow their application rules, but also understand the FARs and not someone’s interpretation of them.
Nonsense! You should know better than to tell an SIC to log PIC time when they are not assigned as the Captain by the certificate holder, not the one sitting in the left seat, signing for the aircraft, making entries in the aircraft log and, not the one ultimately responsible for the safe and efficient operation in the eyes of the FAA.
Re-writing your logbook would be a long and tedious but necessary process after a 121 interviewer taught you a tough but valuable lesson. The Captain is the PIC, the F.O. is the SIC. Don't be padding your logbook with wannabe PIC time.
