Well, with zero political correctness... I think it will be more difficult for you now, not politically correct but I would say it’s a certainty.
Even for Mr John Smith with his 2.5 kids and full work history personal reference etc (as no doubt you have) he will still be required to have much tougher checks carried out.
It is unfortunately but that seems to be the way it is now.
I was recently in Newark following someone of Asian decent with a British passport and they got stopped every 50 yards and questioned and prior to boarding the plane they were searched for the second time?? Paranoia I know but people are scared.
As for in the job market when you finally qualify, I don’t know? Depends on the state of the world at the time, the company, the person interviewing you... the list goes on. Obviously though that could be said for any wannabe pilot. It may seem a harsh environment to enter now but do not let that put you off, things will change for the better eventually.. I hope
