There doesn't seem to be anybody collecting, or at least publishing, this data. Part of the problem is that self-funded wannabes lose touch with their schools a few weeks or maybe months after graduation, and may well not report back their successes and failures. Sponsored candidates, of course, are assumed to have a job on graduation.
My general feeling is that there are fairly few jobs out there for newly-graduated fATPLs. The current uncertainty of the Gulf situation has very recently caused many companies to suspend their recruiting plans indefinitely, and until we see some light at the end of that particular tunnel it's impossible to guess what the near future holds. Things will pick up eventually - they always do - but there are always new obstacles to overcome. This week's suggestions in the press that aviation fuel and tickets could be taxed to slow, or even halt, the growth of air traffic in the UK will have caused some serious head-scratching in many boardrooms!
