what is the lowest # hrs you know of a SIC being hired to fly a bizjet? i have heard rumors of people with anywhere from 250-500 hrs being hired as SICs in lears. is this possible, assuming that the pilot was buddies with the pres/ceo of the company? would insurance even allow it?

My buddy got hired to fly a Lear 35/55 with 1000TT/100ME, but he had to fly under a waiver for insurance until he had about 500 in type. So it is possible, but like others have mentioned, the employer will have to bend over and take it until you clear insurance mins.

I know a guy who was flying a LR-25 and had 600TT/100 multi. He got a few hundered hrs in the lear and then went to Eagle. It was normal at the 135 ops I worked for. Meanwhile the T'prop drivers with 4000-6000 hrs couldn't get in the lear. Needless to say, we had a dumb-a$$ owner

I know of several pilots who recieved internships riding right seat in a citation. Requirements were 250TT and 25 ME, however competive is 1000TT and 100ME. The most recent person who got it though was no where near that competive mark.
