Just to inform you all a bit, there are job places available still upon completion of the wings course with CTC, in fact, the delays most cadets experience is due to them deciding to wait for a particular airline when that airline has no immediate need for pilots.

So far, if you wanted ANY job then after leaving the wings scheme there are 4 companies with which you could be placed.

Most people wait for easyjet because they have the best basing and loan repayment options and its quite normal that they are not taking cadets all year round.

When easyjet is not selecting you can still go through the BA selection process and try to get in, sadly it is apparently not easy and not many cadets get through to BA, some do though.

if both those options fail then there are 3 other companies that are offering places right now, most people don't take them in order to wait of another better offer but the argument of "no jobs for a while" is total nonsense for now.
