Left GECAT after getting my airbus ticket winter 2006 and within 2 months got a job with a major charter airline. I got the job off my own back not placed by GECAT and I believe this has been the case for most people..
If you do choose to take up a SS TR with them, don't expect them to give too much of a sh*t once you have left and they have your money.. however if you put the effort in, there are definitely definitley jobs to be had with a TR and zero hours on type.. I would recommend anyone to go down the SS TR route and from all the people who I know who have been through various different TRTOs I would say it is easier to get a job with Airbus TR rather than 737 (but thats just from my experience)
enjoy
