Hiring Bid Air Traffic Control Specialist - Trainee: FAA-ATO-17-ALLSRCE-53474

I have no clue how the test is weighted but I can say I had a similar feeling as you afterwards in that the logic and word games were hit or miss.

Okay cool, thanks! I'm not saying this to brag at all, just knowing how I was doing on the atcprep vs how I did on the actual ATSA I feel like I got 90%-95% on the first 4 sections so I'm hoping that bodes well for me!
 
May I ask what your timeline between test date and “pass” notification was?

ATSA's started in the first week of November, I took mine the first or second week of December and got the "Referred" notification the first week of January.
 
Is 11/30 still the date for when referrals will be made, meaning the people that took the test will receive notification to move on or thanks but maybe next year?
 
Do we know how many of the eligible 5383 actually tested? I know in previous years large amounts of eligible individuals didn't even test.

From Aviation Careers HR Specialist:

"Unfortunately, we do not have a specified timeframe. Once all of the tests have been validated, a referral list will be prepared and sent to ATO. At that time, ATO will make their selections and applicants will either be notified from Aviation Careers with a tentative offer letter or by USAJobs stating that they were not selected."

I believe the last day of testing is the 17th if I recall correctly. This is, of course, if nothing has changed from what was previously posted.
