Type rated - time to line broken down
Week 1 - HR paperwork/Uniforms/ID etc
Week 2 - FZ training classrooms SEP/CRM/First Aid
Week 3 - transfer to Emirates CAE for classroom training
Week 4 - exams and IPT training
Week 5 & 6 Simulators
Week 7 & 8 Line training (Saudi Arabian flights are normal)
Plus allow about 10-12 days of contingency delays/planning issues
As a rough guide a type rated pilot should be on line within 10-11 weeks.
Things that would delay this
Failure of technical exam
Failure of sims
Failure of line checks
Failure = extra training = delays
My advise come well prepared and don't expect to be given much leeway in terms of failure.
Sad to say that a few have been lost lately due poor performance with jobs at previous airlines left and no Plan B.
