I wouldn't have thought the WINGS cadets are worrying too much
From what I can tell, there's no guarantee of a job. So far they have had 100% employment rates, but if
they haven't signed a contract to say they absolutely have to employ you, I don't think you'll rate highly on their priorities list when it comes to cost cutting and reducing their staff numbers.
I'm counting on the fact that in 18 months we'll have hit the trough and will be on the way up again. Ride out the storm in NZ!
