You have impressive number of ME hours for your total time. Besides, many pilots with your number of hours had been hired to fly for major airlines all over the world so don't let this concern you.
Of course you'd find so many pilots here who somehow think that there's a 'magic' number of hours that qualify you to fly a HP Twin, Turboprop, a regional jet, or bigger jet.
Good Luck.
Seriously, come on. there is nothing impressive about 250TT and 100+ME...again I say come on
Your opinion that just because someone can make it through training is ready and experienced enough to fly a jet. Talk to some Captains that had to fly with those 300 hour pilots when they were released to the line and ask their opinion.
It is all about TT and hours. Simply put, the more time you fly the more time you have to see diferent situations.
Also, more hours can also mean more time flying out of a training enviroment. 250 TT is not enough time to allow you to fly in diferent conditions and enviroments.
