Mate, if it's for the end of the year you'll be into the wet season, so your chances of getting a first job will be low. Why not get some tailwheel time and go west for the summer. DEC will be recruiting firespotting/Air Attack pilots for work from November-April/May. It's a great first job. Pays reasonably, the aircraft are good and the flying can be fun. You'll pick up 300-odd hours and then move on in time to go north.
