believe me, they don't have to cry for pilots with 300/500h ON TYPE.They are not desperated to see you with a type rating.
not only you need 300/500h , but they want see your 1500-2000h total time.

these requirements are to apply, it doesn't mean they will give you a job.
Parc aviation received thousand of email every week.
When they have a job opening , 200-300 pilots apply for maybe 5-10 jobs.

So they will pick up the guys with 10'000h, not the guy with 300h just coming out from line training.

about Bond? some of my friends didn't finished their type or their line training. Once you have paid, they put you on stand by after 2-3 days flying, then you wait and wait , and wait, until your license are expired,...and with no curent license, you have 2 choices, you pay more, or you leave...
