You are absolutely right. Preach the word. It’s funny to see people actually proud to join Ryanair. I understand a first job in the RHS, but its a low cost carrier with management who couldn’t care less about you! You are there to make them money. Only BALPA have pushed for appropriate conditions.
Now I understand there’s many people who fly for RYR in here and you will have a bias and never want to talk down on your own airline. Problem is you haven’t experienced any better.
With regards to recruitment, I worked in pilot recruitment before I joined as an airline pilot. I don’t work in recruitment anymore but I can freely share my experience. Ryanair pilots apply in the masses to other airlines….a few pass but many fail. It’s all relative. You will still find former RYR pilots in other (better) carriers like EK, BA and EZY but the fact is hundreds don't make the cut.
