airmen,
since yesterday I know what you mean. got an answer from Lufthansa Cityline, they told me they're not recruiting any pilots currently (which I can understand).
BUT: They also wrote that you have to be EU-citizen to apply for a position within LH Cityline.
As a swiss, I'm sure I do have the same rights -> Discrimination !!
BTW: The British Embassy confirmed, that Swiss should be treated as EU citizens regarding work. So obviously the company's don't get it.
Would be very much interested what you can find out with your lawyer, airmen.
