I heard they hire low hour people in CEB as long as you have an A320 type rating. If things change in the future, I might just stick with the CFI path... havent tried anything. How about you ?
I know it's a big risk but I'm sure we'll end up somewhere... might just take years of hour building.

Go down the CFI route, that's far better.

I am in Europe, and if the Philippines is anything like here, do not, whatever you do, pay for a type rating without a job at the end of it. Where I currently work, they will specifically not employ you if you have a TR but no actual hours on type. It is a huge waste of cash.

There is no safety culture at CP. It all revolves around how much money LYG can make.

Unfortunately CP will hire with no experience just to put a body in the right seat. Lance would have these planes flown single pilot if he could get CAAP to go along with it.

Air Asia Malaysia and Cebu Pacific both hire non experienced people.
From the feedback I have heard from both companies is that training is generally okay , standards definitely lower in the Philippines . Air Asia also has far better command opportunities right now , for Malaysians. Cebu upgrades very few expats but it is possible.
Under no illusion should you belive after you do your type rating you are guarenteed a job , it's all luck!

Air Asia has a real training program and runs it professionally.

Training is abysmal at CP. Standards are very weak, no safety culture and with exception most of the trainers have no business instructing. A few of the senior instructors (BJ, JL, RG) actually do a good job, but they are few. The idiots at PAAT have no business in the classroom or simulator.

Many there will not tell you the truth for fear of retribution, which CP is known for.
