ratings
If the company is very keen to employ your good self they should
provide you with the type rating.
If they provide you with the type rating you should be bonded to that company for a stated period. If you decide to leave the company half way through the bonded period you should pay back the company half the cost of the initial type rating.
If you go out on a limb and pay for the type rating your self
.....what happens in 3 months when the company goes bankrupt.?
You have to look at the situation very carefully. A company is ususally more liquid than a pilot....the relationship between you and the potential employer hopefully is one of trust and respect.
If they are not of this nature along the line they will throw you to the crocodiles.
Good Luck
