Job placement

I'm considering either OAT or a US based JAA school for my ATPL. How likely are you to get a job after training at a US school as apposed to a UK based school? if anyone knows?

I'd much prefer to spend £30,000 on my course than £65,000, but if i'm not gonna get a job at the end of it then whats the point in doing the training at all.

Is which flight school you train at a big factor when seeking employment? or is it more down to your test scores and personality? and do airlines look down on you if you train in the US? Has anyone trained in the US and found it difficult to find employment?

If anyone can help me out with this i'd be really grateful and if anyone can recommend a good flight school in the US let me know.

Thanks a lot

Ed
