EK is going on a roadshow all over the world, anyone aware if EK or other airlines willing to do a bond for pilots similar to my case?

BA pilot recruitment team is currently in DXB as part of their roadshow, yet they don't specify what they're looking for in their candidates.

Appreciate y'all advice and thoughts.
The only chance for you to land a job as a fresher is with flydubai through their second officer program but it's comes at a cost. There is no way you can convert your foregin license to GCAA without a sponsor or a guranteed job unless you are a local.
