I'll apologize if this has been discussed at length before, but at the time of this post I don't have enough posts for the search function yet.....go figure

Anyway I'm wondering if anyone can maybe help me regarding hiring mins. I'm pretty far off before I start applying at places, but I look at the mins for certain companies and for example Air Wisky lists 1000/250 for their mins. Yet I see on certain other gouge websites that people get hired with lower times, and I'm wondering whether or not anyone catches grief from companies for applying with time lower than the mins. It seems this is pretty common across the board with airlines.

Like I said I still have a little ways to go, but I guess I would just like some insight as to how people with lower time apply at these places (mail resumes for example?), and also what their response would be if asked why they apply when not meeting posted mins.

Hope that makes some sense, thanks in advance for the input.
