I self funded a TR. After rating, spent 6 months looking for work, (and began to think i blew a shed load of cash) then as it goes got offered 2 jobs. I get to stay in UK too which is a bonus. Start in little over 2 weeks. Cant WAIT!!!
I was modular (foriegn licence conversion) and had 10hrs on type.
Ratings not a guaranteed job. But hopefully will land u an interview sooner. Impress them and you'll have the job!
Good Luck!
