    hypothetical question (maybe to execute in next 3-4 years) as a pilot with ATPL ~2000h total, ~1700 as SIC in B737/A320 (regional in EU, takes straight after school) on point for captain upgrade.
    Is a SENSE TO THINKING to move flying "private" jets for similar money? is PIC time required in that situation? how many? (on B737/A320).

    This is a very poor way to check over a jet. To do correctly you need to check flight logs and maintenance records and there is a book of check list that a mechanic would go over with a fine tooth comb before submitting a offer. This guy is just randomly looking and odds and ends.
