"You have a type, apply to a legacy"
I don't even have any 121 time yet, I'm restricted ATP at 1250 with an A320 type rating. Currently I'm signed up for a class date at a ULCC. I've been told by a few other people older in the industry to just apply to a legacy such as United.
United is a long term goal for me, and I'm always hungry for resonsibility and opportunity. They have a base at MCO which is where I'd like to be.
Is this a serious thing? Would United really look twice at a guy with a 2 year degree, no 121 time, and a type rating?

The airline I work for does like to see an applicant who has passed 121 training or military pilots. Non 121 jet is okay though they look for more hours.
Not a deal breaker, but they don't want someone who washes out during training.
Which does not mean you should not apply, just be realistic.
