According to generally accepted canon (stuff said or hinted at in TV shows and movies), after graduation from Starfleet Kirk served on various ships (starting with the
USS Farragut) for almost a decade before getting command of the Enterprise (and no, he hadn't been on it under Pike).
ETA: Oh, and something that occurs to me, just to add to things that break canon even in the new timeline. In TOS, there was an episode in which the Federation first made visual contact with the Romulans and it was a surprise to everybody (including Spock) that they were related to Vulcans. Just a minor thing, but the kind of thing that has been trickling into my head all morning. Having all episodes on Hulu is really going to make nitpicing easier (as now I'm tempted to rewatch the episode to see exactly what was said).
