I applied this past Saturday. Nothing yet. I am exactly where you are at. I don't have the 500 turbine time and I can not decide if I want to pay for the ATP/CTP course out of pocket or not when so many places are offering it when hired. I'm way over the TT and MUlti time required. It''s not easy finding a multi turbine gig anymore.
This is like a game of musical chairs right now. After doing much of nothing because of Covid, as some of us have been laid off because of it like I have, we are all anxious to live on again. Looks like we (pilots like you and I) may have to wait to see if the requirements come down before we can have a seat open in this room.
Thanks for all the other info. I'd go for the long hauls like the 14 day on 15 off. Being single I have adventures to go on. Maybe like steal a multi turbine for time building. HA!!!
