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

[SCOTT CAMPOS]

As long as you're not in the WP region that seems to be the case.

I am in the Southern region thankfully.

Has anyone heard yet if you get switched to TETRA that you will definitely be going to N90?

TETRA is ten, eleven, twelve radar assessment.... You could go to any 10, 11, 12 tracon

I’m sure it’s been asked hundreds of times, but my searches all show results from a few years ago. What kind of pay checks are we going to be looking at while there? I’ll be staying at Kim’s without the food package.

 

[Mark Ross]

Seeing everyone with similar timelines as mine receiving class dates is getting me super antsy!

 

[Ianto Muir]

Medically cleared! Just waiting for the phone call now.

It will be N90 only for the foreseeable future.

I got this from here: Academy

What is the pay at the academy?

"Per the job announcement, $22,888.00 to $28,626.00. You also get per diem of $95.60 (annualized $34,894). Combined, the annualized salary at the academy is $57,782-$63,520."

"Per diem is an extra, untaxed pay to account for government related travel. The 2017 rate is $58.20/day for lodging, and $37.40/day for meals & incidentals, for a total of $95.60/day."

So while at the academy you are only taxed on your base pay. I don't know if the default Washington DC locality pay is already factored in or not into the job announcement pay scale.

Question, has anyone with Enroute gotten a June date ? Or a time least been offered that.

(TOL 1/19) (EODS 2/13) (CIL 2/27) (MMPI 3/1) (SECURITY 3/7) (MedExpress 3/14) (Drug and Medical 3/21)

Just got medically cleared. Took 1.5 months after completing my medical requirements. Glad that is over.

I don’t think I’ve seen any June dates. They’re into May class dates now.

Did you find out by emailing medical, or did they reach out to you?

They emailed me.

They emailed me too, I needed a special consideration, though.

I saw some people on stuckmic with June / July dates, but they are from the 2016 bid. I'm crossing my fingers for June / July, myself...

This might be an odd question that nobody has the answer to but, how do they determine how much in the salary range a new hire gets?

you start at the bottom unless you have pay that transfers.

 

[Flashy Vectors]

you start at the bottom unless you have pay that transfers.

But when it comes to new hires in a non previous experience bid what pay transfer would qualify, or is it universal range for both non-prior/prev-exp?
