How are airlines looking at foreigners with non FAA flight time?
You won't get special consideration for having 1500 hrs 737 time. You'll be a 1800 TT (?) hr candidate. That's not competitive for a major airline job right now. Maybe with 3000 TT. That means you'll have to fly as a regional FO for at least a year. Or some other U.S. based flying. Perhaps night cargo in a King Air, or a Caravan, then a regional FO job, etc.
