I think that there is a bit more than a 'slight' advantage, if you employing pilots and you have hundreds of CV's in front of you, the employer will narrow them down to mostly integrated pilot and a small number of modular pilots. This is because most airlines like integrated pilot as they have been made into more of an airline package, call it a factory if you must but its a factory that works.
As for the airline tagged schemes, they only come once a year and only take a small number of cadets :20-30, so they are still going to want to employ pilots from intergrated schemes. and it is proven tht the airlines are still taking from the FTO's other wise ctc's 100% placement revord wouldnt stand (even with a bit of a wait). if you say that airline are only taking their own cadets what makes you think there going to take modular students.
There are many positives about integrated training an the only negative is money. However there are many negatives about modular training an the only positive the the cheap money, sometimes cheap money isn't always a good thing.
