i was also hired into my job with "exceptionally low" actual time. However, i did have tons of simulated time, and simulator time in our ole' frasca 142 and 131's, so my scan was very good and used often. Then i got my CFII, got a few more actual hours, was looking forward to getting a lot more when the airline called.

Another note, just do your best to take your students up at night as much as possible. During my training, i did all of my 50 hrs of x-country flying at night, half of my instrument training at night, and pounded around the countryside at night to visit my girlfriend with early returns in the morning. Good times, i'll also double what was said before, if you don't have ur CFII, and it's great actual weather, find a friend, and go suck it up in the clouds for a few hours, splittin the costs of the airplane can really make flying a helluva lot cheaper.
