Yes, if you have the experience you can do your "checkride" in a level D approved sim by the country of authority. Unless you have experience a company is looking for that would benefit them financially, I doubt an airline would want to go through this process. This being said, it's a matter of talking to the right person.

I have a few friends working in Europe from Ryan Air all the way to Turkish Airlines (sorry Olympic ). What we have seen already happening here is slowly starting to appear there. I guess we will see in the true colors of this industry in the coming months.
