True. Go through step one first. Take an optimistic attitude - you have to meet a lot of requirements - academics, physical, etc. Don't be a pessimist, else it will rub off on you and show in the interviews.

It's not guaranteed but based on previous statistics almost all get in.

Although the regionals and commuters in these countries are hiring there's a flood of GenAv pilots as well so if you are not a citizen or resident it might not be easy.
Whichever way you go, I wish you the best of luck.
