£850,- for a selection?

£19.000,- (sorry, £19.000 - £850= £18.150 ) for a type rating?

and then the employee has to pay £100,- per sector for line intro?

What happens after this line intro? Do you get a job? Wait, let me quote what their website says:

The very real prospect of either a fixed term contract or a permanent position with one of our airline customers.


Here is some more garbage from their site:

So confident are we in the quality of our pilots, we offer a free replacement in the event that any one of our pilots fails to meet the operating standards of our airline customers.
What´s next? The airline´s personnel department gets a free coffee maker for every ´purchased´ pilot?

They can use these F/O´s for free on revenue producing flights (oops sorry, they actually make £100,- per sector!) and they can then DUMP them after he/she has spent £18.150,- for a type and £850,- for a "selection."
I guess the "selection" only has a validity for 12 sectors line intro @ £100,- per sector...!!

I am totally shocked and disgusted that these kind of practices go on in ´civilized´ Europe!
