If you want to dig a bit deeper my Twin Otter time wasnt deemed acceptable by Alliance because it wasnt a "transport category" aircraft.
If I were a recruiter and I had 50 people come to me with transport category and multi crew time, I’d take them over someone without it generally too. But I wouldn’t put all my eggs in one basket and not advertise the lowest experience I’d be willing to accept if I had to.

I don’t see what your whinge is about Chute. It’s just market demand. In 5 years time they will probably have to accept even lower than what you first applied with because apparently we’ll be short of pilots.
