What do you all think the prospects would be for a Yank (is that the term used for us Americans?) flying for EasyJet (or any EU LCC) should one have a JAA license with an A320 type rating and a right to live and work in the EU? Also have extensive A320 experience and am currently and A320 SFI/TRI/CKA.
We have a number of yanks working for easyJet, but you must have a JAA or European licence. in addition you need an unrestricted right to work in the EU. Without those you are going nowhere anywhere in Europe.

The prospects are not good unless you want to work for a contractor agency like PARC. The only direct entry 2 year fixed term into easyJet is Lisbon at the moment.
Does 77k euro basic for a DEC sound attractive to you? Variable pay and fuel bonusses included they expect captains to make 110K gross a year.
To be honest I don't think any LCC in Europe cares about nationality. You would stand a bigger chance joining an EU LCC if you had 200hrs fresh out of flightschool.
DE is not likely to happen anytime soon at Easyjet. If sudden shortages should arrive Easyjet will propose to plug these gaps by "temporary" contractors. Who offcourse will never leave but won't become easyJet employed pilots either.
