I think the issue is really the priority that people (both candidates and the airlines themselves) give to language training. Lack of language proficiency is a major safety concern.
I have friends caught in the post CPL bottleneck too. I have watched them wait and apply for airlines and get rejected. Some of them are native speakers. I'm not encouraging people to run out, get bank loans and spend all their money on flight training. I'm encouraging them to sort out their English before they even apply to airlines. If you do get your licences, take them for what they are - just a licence, not a guarantee of a job.
Language training is much more affordable than flight training. And if ultimately you are unsuccessful, at least you have better English.
