It really depends what sort of employment you are looking for? Nobody is going to look particularly unfavourably at modular licence aquisition. However when you refer to "cadet schemes" I assume mean airline cadet schemes. These are usually conducted through one or more affiliated integrated training providers. As such you wouldn't normally qualify for these types of placement by definition.
For direct employment, an airline (outside of a cadet programme) will usually be looking typically for a full ATPL with around 1500 to 2500 hours including at least 500 hours on turbine powered aircraft. The requirements will vary from company to company. There is a lot of competition at this level.
