33 years old, married one kid, another on the way, finished CPL/IR frozen ATPL approved course at UK school in May, still seeking first job. Spent all my ( and my wife's ) savings, remortgaged the house, sold the car, borrowed etc.
Desperately trying to get a job before going down the instructor route (if we can live off the pay?!!). Did well at the flight training and had a successful career (which I left for good in 1998) to add to the cv,but noone from my course seems to be getting a job. Getting a little tired of hearing people say "just do it!". My advise would be to look before you leap - it's serious stuff if you've family and/or you literally run out of money.
Of course, if I get offered a job next week I'll be saying - "just go for it"!!
