Thinking of hitting "pause"

Hi everyone

This may seem like a bit of a wierd question, but I'll shoot on anyway. I'm currently in phase two of ground school, flying off to Phoenix in a couple of months time, and all of sudden I've been caught up by a strange panic. I'm sure that being a pilot is my aim in life and my dream, but the fact of finding a job straight away after graduating is what is frightening me a bit because it makes me realise how much I would have liked to do before actually getting on to the job market.

Basically, I was wondering what the effects of taking lets say a year off before looking for a job after having completed the course would be on my chances of actually getting a job. Not that I'm sure I'll do this or even thinking seriously about it, but I was just curious, has anyone done this before? And if yes, what are the consequences?
