Dont waste your money mate it wont help you get a job.
Trust me put it towards your commercial hours or other training.

Heres a tip,finish your commercial and research all the companies in the country that operate single engine pax joyflights and charter,they are your best bet to get started.

Heres another tip,only do an instructors ticket if you want to instruct.If you do it to get paid work and build up your time youll be very disappointed.(remember also that to get an instructors rating these days you are up for around 10,000 or more,thats if you want to learn how to be a good instructor)

Trust me on this if you put your $10,000 towards researching and travelling around the country meeting prospctive employers youll be alot better off.

Happy hunting and the very best of luck,after 14 years in the industry trust me its not always an easy road but you will get out of it what you put in.(ALWAYS TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS,IF SOMETHING SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE............).

Dont believe everything you flying school tells you,remember they are there to make money,they are not an employment agency.
