Orichetti I feel sorry for you, but it would really tough or more.
in my previous airline (A320) I tried to help a friend by recommending him, so his CV was supposed to be on top (for F/o position, he even had hours on 320!), instead of that, they prefered to hire young cadets. I was angry at them. Plus the management asked us to recommend if we knew any f/o, and then they stab on your back.
Just to tell, you can imagine when your CV is not even considered !
