I don't know how relevant this is today, but when I joined BA in 2015 it took them just over three weeks to let me know I'd got the job. My sim partner for the assessment heard within 48 hours of us...

In your example as a 10 year LH SFO you would slide across on to 10 year SH CA pay. You don't start again from the bottom of the scale.

Judging by the very high number of begging texts for P2s to pick up trips and come and fly on their days off, I don't think those in the pool have too much to worry about right now. That comes with...

I would say less than a third of BA's recruitment comes from cadets and new flight school graduates. About 50% are probably DEPs from other airlines and the rest are probably Managed Path pilots...
