Training key question

Having been through the flight training cluster f*** and seen all my colleagues from it progress onto their old careers of IT, building and suchlike. Through a contact of my families i have been lucky beyond my doing to be employed in aviation. The only keyphrase for any potential pilot trainee in my view is:

Complete your training to FATPL if you are happy in the knowledge that you won't get a job.

Going by the number of CVs we are recieving on a weekly basis i can tell you that it is the truth. You might be very lucky though at some point shortly after graduating and be offered somthing. That in my view is the long and short of anyone considering completing the journey to FATPL.
