Derek - I beg to differ with you on that (unless you know the right people of course, in which case disregard!)
Airlines are on the lookout for people who will make good OPERATORS. This is a good blend of personal qualities, organisation, logical thinking, knowledge and application of SOPs, sound judgement and good decision-making. Most airline application forms will ask you questions about these qualities, not your flying ability. The most you'll get asked about flying is how many hours you have.
As Pub User says, no HR person in an airline knows what your flying's like when your CV/application lands on their desk.
