When I started flying way back in the 1980's Australia's civil aviation authority would send you a letter congratulating you on becoming a pilot (this was just at the student pilot stage). However, they would warn you that there are more pilots than jobs so don't believe the flight school hype.

I don't think they do that any more which is a pity.

In Australia, the CPL to good well paying job ratio is something like 100 to 10. Yes, for every 100 CPL's issued, only 10 will get a decent jet job.

Food for thought.
