Non-type rated FO meaning
When applying to airlines like Ryanair or Easyjet and they have an option -"Non-Type rated FO", does this mean they pay for your type-rating or how does it work?
Non-type rated generally means experienced on another type but not this one. If you've never held any type rating at all then you're generally considered a cadet.

Hi all,
Do you think there will be real chances to get into these type of airlines (EZY, RYR) without a TR and with c200h in the short term? Guess is a frequent question many of us here think about.

As long as you have a pulse and about 30000 Euros you should be good to go. It’s much more profitable than selling airline tickets.

How can it be legal to still have the P2F choice as a current alternative? Life is not fair, but I think authorities should forbid that.
Does this mean there is no other way to get into these airlines without paying yourself for the TR?
Do you have a salary in your first year, and a job guranteed after the TR completion?
Cheers

Is there any real chance to get a job as a FO without P2F option? Maybe in different airlines in Europe as the ones previously stated.
Thanks
Almost everybody gets their first job without P2F. I certainly don't know anyone who did it. Timing is everything.

This whole discussion depends on what each person deems to be "P2F".
Paying for a rating? Paying for line training? Paying for any part of your training?
The term P2F was coined some years ago to refer to these so called line training programmes. Where people would pay for their first x00 hours on a jet.

Anyhow, it is a real challenge to go for it, but I am on my way to it
I think most people would consider paying for a type rating as NOT P2F. P2F is a term normally used for those schemes were YOU pay to fly for 100hrs+ line experience as an unpaid FO.
