We know much better in Cathay Pacific Airways here in Hong Kong!
We employ you on a base in, say, London for 12 years giving you 24 simulator sessions during that time. Then, as your Command comes up, we give you a face to face grilling in the Fleet office. Then we give you about 60 sectors of Command training and checking in Hong Kong having taken away your base and forced you to move to Hong Kong. You go to the bottom of the seniority list (ie you're the most junior Captain) and spend the next 10 years - or more- trying to get back on your base.
Oh and probably do all the above on a new type (ie Boeing to Airbus). Works like a charm and has done for years!
