101% agreed. There simply couldn't be a better advice on that.
Also, please do not compare P2F to overpriced type ratings, as many who choose to play devil's advocate do. It's not the same, although airlines also often have a finger in the pie in said type ratings. Paying a training provider for a course, whatever the price and the relation of that provider to the airline is one thing. Paying an employer to occupy a vacancy which could have otherwise been a paid job and someone's means to make a living is something completely different. And it can come back and bite your lower back in more than one way. I've seen myself recruiters who put the lowest priority on a candidate that seems to be coming from the P2F route. As attractive as it may seem to someone who has the money readily available, it will damage your prospects. Aviation is a very small world and the stain on your reputation will stay there for years.

Any one with Eaglejet / Eagle Jet 2022
Anyone recently enrolled in one of eaglejet B737 or A320 programs and can share details such as where they do the TR / what airlines in Europe / North Africa are we talking about and how long does it take? Thanks to those who answer.

Dear Arkanwings,
I'm considering this route as well, any update so far?
You can send me an email or I can send you a PM if you can make a room.I did research on it but I have never talked to anybody who has actually gone through this route.
If you could talk to me even a little, it would be very appreciated.
Even if you have not joined it, I am happy to share the information I gathered.

I am kind of in the same situation as well at the moment, having a CPL-(A) from EASA with all the valid ratings. I kind of feel dumb doing the course due to the fact of how sad the market is, literally everywhere they are asking for experience on type and my nationality makes it worse which is Indian. I am so close of considering pay 2 fly because it looks like I do not have any options at the moment, if there is anyone who can pour a glimpse of hope or any advice please feel free.

The first 500 hours on multi-crew aircraft are arguably your most important. Stay well away from schemes like this that serve only to protect the company, not the “customer”.
