Hello
Any Airlines offering Ab-initio training?

Tried Proflight, Royal, SAA, KQ, Cathay Pacific and BA and nothing has come up. This is the third year running i am going through this

If you know of any airline recruiting, please let me know

The big airlines don't need to run abinitio. They can simply pick up the people wanting to move on from low cost carriers.

I suggest you broaden your horizons much wider than that paltry handful you suggested there, and I hate to burst your bubble but if you go to an interview and tell them that you've just been waiting years for a chance instead of actively developing yourself, they'll probably set fire to your application in front if you.

Majority of the African carriers do offer Ab-initio training but only to their citizen. For example Kenya Airways do have Ab-initio training but it's only for Kenyan citizen.

But like what Dash8driver1312 said, you need to broaden your horizon. See below international Ab-initio training programs. Please be aware most of these programs will cost you more than $110,000 USD with a no guarantee on a job offer.
