E175 no doubt

I'm currently flying the 175 as an FO and looking for opportunities abroad. Curious did you friend go as A direct entry captain ? Do you remember the name of the carrier he went to ?

China has plenty of FO’s. They are only hiring foreign captains. Everyone I know from Republic went to Tianjin (part of Hainan). Most have left because the conditions declined, but many went to other carriers (mostly charter/corporate). Everywhere requires PIC on ype. The amount of time depends on the regional authority. China Express is in the southern region and requires 5,000 121 time and 1,000 PIC 121 time. I believe Tianjin is only 500 PIC on type and 3,000 total time.

China ERJ and CRJ jobs
 

Do you mind tell me how did your friend find those jobs in China and how are their pays? Thank you.

Do they take pilots with a FAA ATPL?
No conversion needed?

Company in Canada called ACASS. It's a contract company. They find pilots for those that need them. Pay is okay, not great, but it's a foot in the door and good networking tool. Sign up with them, it's free and will only help you if you are looking to go over there. They'll call if they need you and you can accept or decline any offer.

Depends on the operator. Some a/c are N-registered. In that case, no conversion needed. It's obviously very beneficial, however, to have a CAA licenses and medical.
