Hi guys, I've got a question: Apparently you have to do the TR and pay those 17000€ before they put you in that famous holding pool BUT, why are they recruiting rated ATR first officers with the only requirement (in terms of flying experience) of the TR?

The job offer is here: Rated ATR First Officers (Dublin)-Latest Pilot Jobs-Latest Pilot Jobs

That makes me wonder what's happening to the guys in the holding pool. Is it maybe empty? Otherwise it doesn't quite make sense to me that they're looking outside tbh...

I don't know how somebody can take the huge risk of spending that amount of money with no guarantee of a job afterwards... If only we could know what's the status of the holding pool and how long does it takes for the candidates to get a job offer, it would make that decision a lot easier.
