First off, not many places (on the 135 side) that would hire him with such low time. Remember there are minimums, competitive minimums, and insurance minimums. Big difference.
He couldn't even get a job as a diver driver in the US because of his low time. Again, insurance minimums at play.
Best would be to get his CFI and instruct for a while..
And of course, if he is not a legal resident or US citizen he couldn't even apply with any of those "sketchy" operators.
