So the legacy carrier, Lufthansa, is not looking for pilots its the LCC that need them.

I agree there is a pilot shortage. The pilot shortage is with LCC, companies that pay bellow market value, practice bad management and run on the smell of a oily rag. If you look for pilot jobs, those companies that fall under the above descriptions, do indeed need pilots. US legacy carriers are an exception to the rule.
