It's not likely to hurt your employment opportunities. I know of students involved in much worse accidents during the CPL or IR portion of their training who went on to get jobs. One was probably the student's fault due to poor crosswind technique while right at the aircraft's crosswind limit. It was also on his IR skills test. He got a partial pass, passed the retake and now flies for a rather well known airline.

This is not the first training aircraftr bent this month and won't be the last. Students have to be allowed to make mistakes and come back from them. Get back in the saddle and put it behind you. So long as it doesn't shake your confidence, and you don't do it repeatedly, it shouldn't hurt your job opportunities.
