CX Direct entry Cargo FO 2000 hours?

[furloughfodder]

Has anyone here been asked to interview for the Cargo FO position with less than 2000 SIC jet time?

Or must you have 2000 hours Jet Time if it is all SIC and no PIC?

I spoke with the Cathay interview coordinators three weeks ago. In order to be competetive for DE F/O you need 4000 hrs total time, 1000 jet, and PIC heavy turbo prop time.
