Wanted to bring this to the top again. As an important question was asked by Golf Foxtrot, which has yet to be answered by anyone ? ;
"What about the claim Oxford have made:
"At last there are signs of improvement on the job front! Presently, we have at least one airline asking for low hours pilots. In fact, we have placed nearly 30 pilots over the past two to three months with at least six different airlines."
This fairly explicit statement was taken from the, "Calling Oxford Graduates" link on their home page. If it's untrue it's a fairly blatant false advertising.
Can anyone shed any light on it, are the 30 pilots in question ex-sponsored cadets or self-improvers. "
Now we know there are people from OATS reading this board. Come on guys, any comments??

I've recently left Oxford so things may have changed but not much I shouldnt imagine.....
My understanding of the process (Its happening with a pal of mine) is that if your grades are excellent (All 1st time passes and high 80s low 90s) and your flying is GOOD AND you fit the profile of the particular airline/s that are looking through OATS for crew then you MAY get put forward.
This applies to Mod and Int studes, it doesnt matter which route you've taken you just have to fulfill the criteria.
There are no garuantees by OATS, you still have to have the entire interview process (plenty of scope to not make it there then)
As for the figures quoted on their web site I cant confirm them but what I can say is that there is definite proaction by them to get people placed.
As someone said before why doesnt someone call Mike Taylor and ask?
