I have a few questions :
Have you started reading for the ATPL?
You have to be a captain to go Direct Entry Captain ( DEC) You are not, as I understand it,
You fly the 737 and want to go DEC with Easyjet an A320 operator?

I am afraid it aint that easy......
Yes I realize I have to be a Capt, and have 737 Capt time. I have turboprop PIC time which apparently doesn't count, which is idiotic since it's a harder job...
I'm looking long term here, starting the conversion process and getting he frozen ATPL and then knocking the type ride out of the way once flight time gets closer.
Easy jet does hire non A320 typed DEC.
