A person could not be with in 10 degrees heading on a v1 cut and get another try on an AQP MV, but yet someone else bust and go on PRIA record with a regular 121 check ride.
No airline hiring board cares about your CFI failures. I have friends with nothing spectacular on their resume that have 3 primary failures and got hired at Delta. Another friend who failed recurrent at his 121 airline who is at FedEx. It's not that you fail, it's how you respond to those failures.
