The job market for pilots worldwide is the best I've seen in 31 years of aviation. And it's bound to get better. There are airlines in the Far East and Middle East that are ordering aircraft from Boeing and Airbus - and have no idea where they are going to get the crew from! The expat pilot market is booming! Bottom line is - highest payer will get the crew. The situation has been particularly good for south African pilots. Lots of contract work in Africa giving good experience on multi-engine, multi-crew, turbine aircraft. A good start for getting into the smaller airlines and working your way up.
I can give you lots of detail on these aspects. PM me and I'll put you in touch with the right people. Life's too short to be doing something you aren't passionate about.
