If someone else is paying for your training, is this towards a specific airline job? Or are you and your government taking a punt on you getting employed by someone, somewhere? If so, for whom and where are you hoping to work?

Despite the protestations of certain schools, there is little implied prestige in having studied at one school over any other. Integrated course graduates are preferred by a few airlines, others are vociferous in preferring those who've had to work a bit harder to get there (this may have something to do with outdated perceptions of flying training, but that's irrelevent). The fact is, all that counts is the licence. Very few airlines even ask where you did your training.
