That being said, do yourself (and others) a favor and stay where you are, upgrade, and move on. Legacies still want TPIC (yes, there are always 1 or 2 in each class who are hired at the big three with 0TPIC and it’s no longer “required”). But, as a whole, that’s how you’re getting hired there.
Coming to JB with the sole intent of using it to leave without already having TPIC time is not the recipe for moving on to a legacy from here.
While I'm going to agree with you about the stay, upgrade and then log TPIC. However I'm going to disagree with you on the legacies want TPIC. Just to give some data...2800+ TT 1400+ Turbine time 0 TPIC I've interviewed at both AA and UAL. I've received a CJO at least from one of the legacies. Nothing special about myself other than prior USAF Enlisted.
