I was at a career fair and approached ASA. I had almost exactly 600 TT and 330 Multi with 300 SIC Turbine. They had an unofficial min of 600/100ME with ERAU if you had to have taken the Riddle CRJ course (ground and FTD training) or had done some training in a glass cockpit (new cessnas). I figured that with my 300 turbine I might be able to get a nibble. No Go. They said if I took an RJ course I could get an interview. Granted, they might not have liked my attitude/appearance or other things about me, but I'm pretty sure it was the glass factor.

My buddy had a similiar experience while working for ATP. He was looking at applying to XJT and ASA and was told that without some kind of glass experience he wouldn't qualify for the bridge and preferential hiring programs.
