Not so quick.
You actually need to have logged it as such.
There needs to be a fix or waypoint at least 50nm away.
Like you're flying practice instrument approaches with a student at an airport which is 35nm away but the IAF for a GPS approach is 51nm.
You'll need to log something stating that fact in your remarks column.
If it isn't a DPE it will be the FAA or a future employer questioning your entries.
You can't just log "XC" with nothing else there.
Not to be a pain....but a CFI should know that kind of stuff.

For a job at a part 135 operator, it only has to be from one airport to another.

I do believe we put a pause on the VFR captain hiring a it ago but I think it is about to start up again. Put in an application on our website (Ameriflight.com) and back it up with a call to Pilot Recruiting. PM me if you would like the contact info.
The one draw back is we have no operations in the North Carolina area. Our closest base is CVG. The closest BE99 run is based out of SDF. If you are willing to relocate to start out, once you transition up to a type rated aircraft (SA227, BE1900, E120) you can bid to a Home Based position, which is an 18 day on/12 day off schedule where we travel you from an airport near wherever you choose to live.

True but it needs to be logged for it to be counted.
So if you've taken a student to the next airport over to practice traffic patterns you should have logged "landings at xyz w/ John Doe" or something to that extend.
You can't go back and go like ' well I think on this flight I went over here and on that flight over there'.
I'm not saying that you did but as far as the FAA is concerned if it's not on paper it didn't happen.

I put two XC number on my resume
Cross-country 50NM+: 350 Point to point: 550
In my logbook, if I flew over 50NM but didn't land, I would put the checkpoint I have flown over that is over 50NM and I will log as XC. And I counted all the flight which I have landed at a different airport and added it all up for the total point to point XC hours.
