"In my experience," as a graduate of mother Rucker then USAF transfer myself, it kills me to say the helicopter time doesn't count for hours, but it does supplement the overall experience and mil pilot block check. From what I've seen at a few conferences, they don't discount the experience as they look at the entire "package." Part 121 time is probably the best thing you can do to distinguish yourself at this point so keep grinding it out, attend any and all conferences, and pad that logbook!

I was hired 3 months ago with a 2.75 GPA 4 year college degree in Aeronautical Engineering. No military background. No masters. So I think the type of degree is important to discuss as well.

I was hired with a 2.3 undergrad GPA from a service Academy with a non technical degree

3.34 here, but that was from a Big Ten school. That's like a 4.0 from an SEC school. ;-)

That's just one of the lies they told you. They didn't want you to be jealous of our beaches, our good looking woman and our schools academics. Lol
Go Gators!

So there's only one good-looking woman in the whole conference?? And I do have to point out that your sentence describing the quality of the academics contains a typo. But, you know, whatever.
