Caribbean Airlines wouldn't advertise Internationally (for DECs) if they were only hiring locally. Obviously, the qualified local talent pool is limited in numbers and since most Regulators have the option and ability to validate foreign licences for their air carriers when the need arises, Caribbean Airlines will exercise that option when the choice is to do so or park aeroplanes. The F/O positions look like they are specifically for caribbean locals.
Airlines worldwide are finding shortages of suitably qualified and experienced flight crew. That means international pilot recruiting is only going to get worse and Caribbean Airlines is no exception. No country will be untouched despite local sentiment, "our pilot jobs for our pilots". Those days are gone.
If you have the qualifications, and as stated in their advert, with an ICAO licence (including FAA), apply. That usually means a local licence validation is possible.
My suggestion is to let Caribbean tell you "no thanks" and not someone anonymously pretending to know (telling you NO) on PPRUNE.
