in the recent easyJet selection of OAA cadets I know for an absolute fact that to even be considered, you had to have >85% and first time passes in all ATPL exams and first series passes in both CPL and IR. I know that if you were put forward to easy you had to go for interview and selection
I'm an eJ TC. One of my colleagues was conducting the interviews. He said the calibre of the applicants is generally high and it was easy to spot those who were not likely to be up to it. I'm sorry to disappoint some of you but THERE IS more to it than simply having the funds.
