Flybe have absolutely no problem finding 200hr CPLs who will go anywhere for a first job - even Fraggle Rock. Persuading them to stay there long term is more of a challenge, but IOM residency alone is unlikely to get your CV to the top of the pile.
And autopilot off is right, not even recommendations from friends or family within the company are much use these days. Recruitment is all handled by one small department, and for low-hours applicants the only recommendations they are interested in are ones from flying schools.
