It is confusing. He states he is swimming in resumes of guys with 5000+ hours with lots of corporate experience, then expains there aren't many pilots with corporate experience. Maybe you missed it. (Yes, many going to majors, but clearly enough are obviously applying to his position! "Swimming"...)

I know more than a couple pilots that have moved from good F100 corporate jobs to major airline positions, and a number of others in corporate positions well inside F500 that have done or are trying to do same.
I also know some F500 jobs are poaching pilots from other, good, F500 positions.
That said, it is still difficult for a light cabin guy to break directly into the 91 large cabin world.
Rising tide lifts all ships, and changing winds allow movement in plenty of directions.

A newly minted CFI had a technical interview and was asked about the vacuum instruments. He kind of described them but insisted that they had to be operated in a vacuum. END OF INTERVIEW.
