Rather than an integrated CPL course, maybe self-fund your PPL, pick up some extra hours along the way, then get HELP funding for the CPL?
I fly at Moorabbin and the yellow Foxbats there are the source of a lot of jokes.
A heavier, more powerful plane like a Cessna or Piper flies quite a bit differently and would probably be a better stepping-stone to the industry.
Never had any dealing with SOAR myself, but I have heard third-party anecdotes that the place has grown quickly and is disorganised.
