If you want that job, it is worth the effort. I know, I have done so.
No job is worth this effort anymore. Why would I waste my time and money and resit 13 ATPL exams which are of the exact same syllabus than the EASA ones? And then they want me to sit some flight tests when I have flown an airliner for over 10 years. Money grabbing c words!
