Relevance of specific MCC-course

What is the relevance of a MCC if you choose for a FFS on a B737NG, instead of a simple Kingair sim? Does it make sense, regarding to applying for jobs of course, to pay 5000 euro for a 'sophisticated' sim, when it's also possible to obtain a MCC-certificatie at a simple sim and pay 2000 euro.

Vacancies show often only 'MCC-certificate' as requirement, but do recruiters also select on MCC sim-type/MCC-provider? In other words; is it wise to do your MCC at the well-known provider Simtech Aviation Ireland for example, or gives an unknown provider you the same value, in terms of attractivity during applying?

And how about JOC? As far as I know a JOC isn't a legal recognized training. But are you significant more attractive when undertaking a JOC, combined with a MCC?

Currently I'm working as Flight Instructor (A) with 500 hrs TT, besides a full time job. But I'd like to explore my chances in larger aviation.
