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

[Bo]

Is there more than usual going on within the Agency right now or is this about the usual time of year all of these hiring and moving bids come out? Or is he delay possibly due to all the craziness caused by the shit weather going on around the country?

Let's hope a government shutdown isn't stacked on top of all of this.

We get a LOT more transparency from the info provided here than the amount we are entitled to, which is absolutely nothing. Just take it, say thank you, and wait for the next celestial event; that's what you'll be doing for the next 30 years.

does anybody have an idea when the next experienced bid is supposed to be released? CTO holder with experience here.

Nope. Hasn't been announced or rumored... So it'll be awhile

 

[Eagle1Fox2]

Better check those emails tomorrow.... fingers crossed

Why? What have you read?

 

[Eagle1Fox2]

Oh nothing, that's just when they're "supposedly" going to email us that's all... fingers crossed they actually do.... you know how they are saying things but never doing any of it.

Why? What have you read?

Breakaway previously posted that we would be notified 9/21 of AT-SA testing dates.

I remember him saying that, but didn't he say the information got updated and removed from the internal site?

 

[Eagle1Fox2]

No clue, just hoping for tomorrow coming up on three months now with no new information.

 

[jakeh10]

No update..

I got picked up in the last OTS bid and the emails notifying you that you got referred for testing went out all day. Mine Came in at like 10am PST and I remember people getting theirs late that evening. So if they start coming out for others don't worry it could take all day.

Sigh..

I know that but it seems like no one got the referral email so I don't think we're getting it. But hopeful...

 

[Eagle1Fox2]

Anyone get anything?

Anyone get anything?

Nothing here, but I'm not too worried about it. We will hear from then when it's all sorted. Luckily we have members here that are as insightful as they can possibly be with the information they have. Knowing the government I know timelines are rarely on time.

 

[Eagle1Fox2]

This is where the language they've given is ambiguous. I had the same thought as you. It seems strange that they would notify the testing centers prior to the applicants, especially after last panel where ~1,000 elected to not even take the AT-SA. Obviously a lot has been going on weather wise around the country the past few weeks. When I get in next I'll see what I can get as far as clarification goes.

Hey Breakaway2000 have you got any new information about the bid?

 

[liondave]

Boom. USAJOBS has not yet updated for me but I got an email to schedule my ATSA test

Congrats! I wonder if they have a specific system they use to send out the notifications or if it's just randomly sent to everyone.

Hey Breakaway2000 have you got any new information about the bid?

No updates on the internal site today. @liondave is patient zero. Glad to hear they've stuck by their original timeline. As others have stated. It's not a one click, send all, emails will continue throughout the day.
