Enzo999 - you are certainly right that easyJet have not offered favourable terms to experienced FOs. The figures you quote are, however, not 100% correct and you also miss out the fact that easyJet has historically exercised some discretion to insert First Officers at an appropriate point on the pay scale depending on their experience.
Unfortunately, your experience of easyJet pilot recruitment and the cancellation of scheduled interviews is par for the course. Indeed, you're lucky you were not offered jobs and them had them rescinded at the last subsequently. Although the recruitment process is quite good, the 'management' of pilot recruitment is something of a disaster. The only thing I can say by way of consolation is that once you get through all that and into the Company it is a really good place to be. Anyway, so sorry about that. Good luck in all your endeavours.
