I'm sure they are out there but it seems to be an important threshold.

Me and ten of my friends. Guys girls!!!!!! Most had 121 also. The key is checking the 121 box. That is worth just as much if not more than tpic! It is NOT required and I got called in 2013 with none (I had some when I got to the interview) I had heavy Air Force, Cargo heavy 121 and regionals. Delta has recently called several of my friends who are mil copilot a but have approx 100-300 hours of RJ 121 time. And the 1000 tpic number means nothing at Delta...or United...or AA friends at all with minimal from the Air Force reserve! This is not fedex or southwest!

I was hired late last year. Do not think I posted these before, so I will save some digging. Rough numbers: 2300 TT, 1800 military, 700 TPIC. And I know there was at least one person in my class with less total time.
It has been said ad nauseum: it is not just about flight time, folks. Polish your entire app and network fiendishly.

completely up to you, do you want to show that you had work ethic in high school or not?

I had a wicked step mother that sent me off to boarding school. I guess that makes me a privileged white kid with no work ethic. We were required to volunteer in the community thought so maybe that will add points. But I didn't work through college either. Sorry. Do I even have a chance?

Yes, list all jobs including the ones in high school. You want to build a picture about who you are as a candidate. Maybe the reason why you had a 2.8 GPA during college is you had to pay your own way through school. The recruiters will never know that unless you put them down on your application.

If anybody has a question about their app send me a PM or email. Good luck.

Take it easy. It's just HS. And Delta is ridiculous for even having to ask about jobs in HS. All of the work ethic for most people began after HS. Most of my HS jobs were undocumented

and under the table. Should I list those too? What a pain in the keester.
