NEVER, EVER, get a type rating without a job in hand.
Not only are you more than halving your chances of getting a job, you will also be paying £25k+ for the privilege to make it harder for yourselves.
keep pushing for your goals, look at EVERY avenue.
Just don't waste your money... and definitely dont bankrupt yourself.
Llama, has some points to consider but Integrated isn't the only way to a Jet job. I didn't go integrated and i got a jet job as my first flying job and that was 4 years ago, when times were harder. Things are improving. Get your MCC/JOC completed.
