Be careful as to what the definition of "simulator" time. Are you talking about an approved full motion sim that replicates a specific type, and can be used for type ratings, or a fixed synthetic trainer approved for simulated IMC practice only. Synthetic trainer practice can be added to your instrument (ground) time, but not really relevant for gaining employment.
