TZZ, my reply was general. However, you are right about the programs, actually the cadet is not frozen it has been totally CANCELLED and Gulf Air is no more training cadets. The only way is to come to them holding your license. AB INITIO is frozen yeah because this is a regular recruiting process for Pilots so lets hope they bring it back soon.
About the recruiting manager, im not sure if someone got the title of that already but best thing to do is to contact OPS department there are people who can guide you.
All the best for you all.
