Red face Companies hiring 200h pilots

Hi guys,

Fast question to those who have a lot of airline employment experience...
Are there many airlines that hire brand new FATPL pilots with 200h???

I mean, I red a lot of threads regarding job offers after finishing Oxford or CTC or Cabair... That means after REALLY finishing the school??? With just 200 hours TT???

I'm asking because I'll start the training in Stapleford in a few months, and... If those at Oxford can get a job with just 200h, I can get it too, right??? And with the optional TR 73-700 plus 100h on type, should put me well ahead... Right?

What do you think guys... I'm really worried about this doubt I have... I always check in job magazines and I always find the minimum requirements so far from what I'll get...
500h on type is the minimum I've found, and just Ryanair, as far as I know, is hiring people with just 200h, IF THIS IS TRUE... Because I was working as cabin crew for them and talking everyday with lots of pilots... No one of them was fresh from a ab-initio course...

Please, need assistance!

Thanks
