I've been told going Integrated would be more ideal in the current situation, however that is not to say that Modular pilots are going to be on the streets
Who ever told you that needs their head checked. Integrated would be the worst decision to make at the moment, infact unless you have 60K cash sitting in the bank, forget it the banks have pulled out of the funding for Integrated training.

Modular is risk free, cheaper, gives you the same experience and licence, and the same hope of a job (since there are none).

If it were me, I would go to University get a degree while flying in the UAS. This will mature you, give you a trade (if the flying goes bad) and give you a lot of skills.

Once you have completed your course, hopefully the market will have calmed down and it will be good time to review your pilot ambition. I done my training while studying at University.
