Well here's my personal point of view:

Everybody needs a chance but does this have to be on a JET?!?

I did my training and some line flying in the Netherlands and the people in the KLM Flight Acadamy, NLS and most of the other schools have been told from day 1 theý'll be hired on a JET!!

<IMHO> There is no subsitute to some good Turboprop experience in an airline environment before moving to a jet.

Ofcourse there will always be exceptions to this but I think that it is a good stepping stone for most people.
