I thought the last DEP recruitment drive widened the criteria to those with a 737 or 757/767 rating as well? BA's priority in recruitment has always been DEPs and CEPs, but as the CEP program is gone they seem to be trying to substitiute it with the Oxford graduates. It'll be interesting to see if they get 24 takers as the new entrants would join on a significantly reduced salary (only slightly greater than CEPs) with the same long time to command. They'd get more cash and a quicker command at Easy! When that source of recruits runs dry then BA will have to consider their position again.
