4 years in company. That’s it. Plenty of 2 stripers walking around at the moment with thousands of jet hours and an ATPL, as well as command experience. It’s a bit much IMHO (particularly as the cadet second officers wear two stripes too), and it means that during the pre briefing coffee the “where were you before?” is quite a loaded question.
