Tut tut silly old Wizz - recruiting guys with experience rather than locals - what ARE they thinking of?! How short sighted of them to want people who know what they are doing flying their aircraft rather than someone who lives down the road and has just finished their type rating!
With that sort of attitude, I'm relieved it's a foreigner (read "experienced") involved in the recruiting and not you my friend.
With time, things will equal out. The experience level will become such that they will be able to recruit local guys. That is the lot of the expat contract pilot and is something most of them accept as a reality of their working lives.
I am employed by a major UK airline that counts pilots from around the world in it's ranks - they were recruited for their experience and ability, not their nationality.
This is about safety, not providing jobs for locals.
