That isnt what is says on the ryanair website:
Application, Training and Hiring process for pilots with 1000 hours JAR 25 experience
If you have a minimum 1000 hours JAR 25 aircraft experience and a ATPL/IR licence but are not B737-rated then you can Apply Online to Ryanair.
If you are successful in your application, you will be required to obtain and fund your B737-rating from a Ryanair approved organisation.
1. Apply Online
A Stg£50 fee is required, refundable to successful applicants
* Apply Online
2. Interview / Assessment
You will be interviewed by Ryanair. Following a successful interview, you will be required to undergo and pass a simulator assessment by the approved training organisation. A non-refundable fee varies and will be provided on application direct to the organisation.
3. Obtain your B737-rating from a Ryanair approved training organisation
If you pass the simulator assessment, you will be offered a contract to fly for Ryanair subject to obtaining your B737-rating from a Ryanair approved training organisation. See the panel on the left for a list of Ryanair-approved training organisations.
Pilots who successfully complete the flight school and line training elements of the Ryanair 737-800 type rating will be offered contracts to fly for Ryanair
It is only the section for those with less than 1000hrs Jar 25 that seem to need to apply to a TRTO first.
I got an email back from Raj Kurrie. He said that the starting salary would be £24000 plus about £27000 flight pay and this would commence on completion of line training.
