This is a hard number just as TT and ME time, however with 34 years of flying you pick up on all of these hiddens. The philosophy here is simple, they're hiring someone with a strong 121 background, check airman, current CFI, and no busts. It's simply more cost effective in training and OE. If they get their six months or a year out of you so be it, they're still ahead.
