FWIW, I was a Capt at the regionals at 23. It does not matter. What matters is if you have 500 PICT and a contact at DAL or 1000 PICT and a contact somewhere else that is willing to walk you stuff in to get you to the top of the stack.
Get the time, but network like crazy. Timing is everything. I did not network enough in the late 90's and it cost me a job at DAL for many years.
