Restricted ATP

Restricted ATP
Approaching 1000tt with over 350 xc and about 200 multi-turbine. Quite frankly, getting 1500 for the regionals is taking me forever so i'm looking to getting there asap.
I see American Eagle, RAH, ExpressJet, and others are interviewing pilots with unrestricted atp mins with a bachelors
What are my chances of landing a regional gig with restricted atp mins?
Any input would be awesome!
Thanks in advance.

I believe the R-ATP is only issued in conjunction with an FAA-approved aviation training program certificate from an FAA-approved school such as UND, Kent State, KS-Salina, Embry Riddle, etc. If you have that certificate then sure, regionals will hire you. I know persons with R-ATPs and they are getting hired. That's how the system works, with FAA-approved programs (only).

No, you complete the school training program, get a job using the fact the regionals know who has the program and wants graduates from the schools working for them, then the regional handles the flight/ground training (for example an 8 week class and Level D simulator program) and administers the actual R-ATP checkride using a sim. FAA may have no direct contact with the applicant for testing, it only processes the application.
