All just rumour, i must add.
There were 10 who attended my assessment day and only 4 of us were "suitable" to BA - ie UK citizens, UK Licence holders, current and with the hours required. The rest were a mix of non-UK resident or licence holders along with folk who hadn't flown since 2020. One or two who attended just for the experience but had already started elsewhere and bonded.
Very slim pickings out there to find the right person for the right job who now has to have the correct passport & licence pus XX amount of experience. One bloke even asked the BA recruitment skipper if BA will be sponsoring Visas
