Corps usually won't even consider hiring ppl with the stink of the airlines on them, simply b/c most (not all) regional airline pilots whine about absolutely everything and have no sense of customer service. pilots can always go from corporate to airline, but it's difficult to transition in the other direction.
Yea because at the king air you'll be PIC.............. think about it. The rest is not really true, give me a corp job flying a G5 or King Air about a few tmies per month vs 80 hours on 10 days off per month. As far as hiring, it's not because of airlines it's because there are many pilots available from the general aviation world. Who would you hire? A pt 91 or a pt 121 pilot for a pt 91 job?? And vice versa.
