Cessna 1052 said a very important thing - "Wait till you dip yourself in the water".

You don't Choose to work for Etihad, you don't chose to work for Emirates, you don't chose to work for Cathay Pacific. If after training (250hrs) you get 3 interviews at these airlines and get offered a job by all three - you will be the first guy EVER in the world to do that.

You do not choose what airline - they choose you. Be ready to work on a turboprop for a few years earning the same amount as a jeepney driver - whilst at the same time sending 100s of CV's around the world. Then again, if you happen to know the Chief Pilot at PAL - then congratulations! 747-400 from day 1.

Seriously though, here in england, people PAY to work for low cost carriers - like easy Jet/Ryan Air. If they are "lucky" enough to get a job.

Read many posts here on pprune. You will find that finding a job is 100 times more difficult than the Instrument Rating test.
