Also once i graduate will it be easy getting a job and whats the pay like for new pilots in the commercial industry
No it won't be easy getting a flying job straight out of flying school.
You'll need to work very hard to "shine" at your school to be considered for any job. Other than that, you'll have to prove yourself for any job, just like every one else.

Pay? At the moment for new hires they are paying the company!
I believe some of the contracts being offered pay about £1000/month. Ridiculous money for a jet job.

Things change, hopefully it will get better but I would plan on it not improving for new hires in the UK.
