If I had the money and was so inclined, I would get an ATR rating down in exeter. They cost £13500+VAT but include the MCC course and from what I understand a large percentage of those doing the course are going straight into jobs. You would want to find out exactly how many and what your chances are before committing though.
By the way I am not knocking the shed, I would love to fly one. They are bloody ugly though, and the cockpit is cramped as hell.
cheers,
