Hi there joe,
Your pretty much more or less in the same position as me ....im just going to get stright to the point....my advice will be enjoy your uni life finish your degree and see how the economy is then by 2012 hopefully we should see some signs of the upturn if not then find a job, work for a year or so then start training and be ready for the peak times around 2015 - 2016.
remember patience is the key to all of this...something that i lack of at this given time and moment.
hope my advice is ok to some extent and good luck!
