Irish doing ATPLs;

Hi,
I'm about to leave for Canada where I'm doing the CPL and MEP course (at a JAR approved FTO). I'll hopefully do the IR back in Europe in the autumn.
Its unfortunate that the job prospects for those of us who complete our training this year don't seem too rosy.
Its been quite some time (like several years) that we've been chanting in unison that "the pool of type rated guys/gals will dry up soon and we'll get our luck break".
However, this doesn't seem to be happening, at least not in the larger scheme of things.
Regarding the Irish market : "1 in 50 chance of getting into Aer Arann" I've read somewhere and Ryanair requires us to dig pretty deep too as we all know!
Ah well, its got to change sometime! best of luck!
