There's really no way to know based on what you posted. You could have 10k hours and were on mil leave for 4 months, in which case you probably have all the recency they care about. If you are low time and also took a long MLOA, you probably would need to build up some recency in addition to the average hours/PIC time that someone coming from a regional typically has. There are plenty of other things that might make that call come earlier or later, though, all depends on what else is in the application.
