Mins are at least 1000. Of course, those are published, so it never hurts to apply.

Yeah I remember seeing one that was higher like that, but I could have sworn I saw two different ones and they had different times... but I can't be certain. I've looked at hundreds of listings over the past couple months and could be confusing it with another.

On Reserve

Just wait for couple of months, FAA going to reduce 1500 hours to R-ATP with your Type rating. It's on the way!

Eh I've been hearing that since before I transferred to a 141 university, and that was 3 years ago. We'll see, but I doubt it'll ever change.

Yeah that sounds about right. And yeah you never know. I got interviews for a couple positions I didn't think I was even closely qualified for. Didn't get the jobs, but hey the fact I got an interview means not every listing asks for hard minimums.
