very unlikely they will help out with conversion.

you need to get the 13 JAA ATPL exams done and get the JAA CPL then go talk to them, they might pay for the type rating and IR, but will bond you for a few years.

What would the process consist of ? Any chance of the companies helping out on the conversion ?
ANY constructive info on the topic would be much appreciated.
