HappyBandit, you want to build up hours and get paid, right? You're willing to come here in Europe, in the far side of the World?
Go in Africa! Try to get a job there as contractor pilot or something else. It's not impossible, you just need to be disposed to leave and work for a while in remote area.
You live in Australia! Lucky you!
In Europe AG experience is nothing! I could have even more than 3000 hours both on single and multi engine planes, but arlines like WizzAir or easyJet will reduce them to 300 hours with their factorised hours table.
This does not happen in Australia, does it?
Then, in Europe we have a lots of languages, and as redsnail said many of them require you to be fluent in local language. There's a company that requires to be fluent in three languages!!! English, Dutch and French.
Give a look in Africa. I'll do the same!
