It's interesting to hear that people view an Integrated course as giving them an advantage when it comes to employment.
I've recently made it into the holding pool of a major UK airline, having taken the modular route to my fATPL. In my interview I turned the fact I did my ATPL exams via distance learning into a selling point - makes a good 'story' about being self motivated, disciplined, determined, etc, etc...in my reckoning, words that will prick the ears up of an interviewer far more than OATS or any other brand name school you care to mention.
