Had a chat with a Captain who fell behind, he has hard time with pilots who got hired just having a CPL outside of Airbaltic Academy, like a French lady with 0 hours on turbo prop airplanes, just her CPL from France, while they are advertising only senior first officers positions
The French lady in question was hired initially as an office employee. She had her CPL from France and also had a well connected French friend who is a Captain and in few months from office jumped to cockpit
Same with some zero hours people who initially got hired as FI in the academy and very soon went to A220
A lot of back doors
