Not sure if Cadet recruitment is handled by Norwegian directly, or their TRTO, I guess if it is not on website it is either full, or handled by the school.

As the main reason for taking contractors is the avoidance of the Norwegian taxes/social payments, even if you could pay (unlikely as your contract is with the agency , not Norwegian) the company don't want to make the contributions. . . hence, contractors & bases in HEL/AGP/LPA & not in TRF/GOT etc.

If you can't correlate this with ordering 737MAX/A320NEOS have you missed the fact that Ryanair have 300+ aircraft & more than 50% Contractors ?
