Hiring Bid Air Traffic Control Specialist - Trainee: FAA-ATO-18-ALLSRCE-57792

[Misconduct]

To add. I received my ATSA email as well.. There are no available test dates within 800 miles. I doubt it's me. I live in the Midwest closer than 200 miles from a couple huge centers.

I'm not sure if you mean centers like FAA facilities or centers like population centers... the ATSA is not taken at FAA facilities. It is at a test facility contracted out by the FAA, absolutely nothing to do with aviation and there will be other people there taking other tests.

Testing is open now guys!

Trying to register for the test, but the PSI web site says: "Please Note: The testing window runs from 12/20/17 through 1/20/18. You may only test during this period."

I'm not seeing a button to register.

Figured as much, however you would THINK testing centers would be close-ish to large metro areas which usually contain things like FAA centers, airports etc.

I knew it was not a "me" issue, and was only hoping to put others ease that it was an issue of PSI not updating the scheduled dates for tests.

I'm not seeing any testing sites for Alaska at all, the nearest site is in Seattle. Am I going to have to fly to Seattle for the test?

Right on the money!

My guess is yes. As someone said before, you have to ask yourself "How much do you want this job?" As in, is it worth this much to you? To some it might very well be. Others not so much.

Scheduled my test date. Very pleased

I saw that there’s a test site in Achorage. Did they not have any dates? If not maybe they aren’t loaded yet. I don’t know why they’d have the address as a possible test site with no dates.

 

[Misconduct]

What state?

MI.

 

[HD-FLO]

Any word on how many test takers?

 

[Sunshine]

MI.

Holt, MI is 800 miles away?

 

[pinesolius]

Scheduled for 10/24 at 9:00AM

 

[memosmi]

Haven't gotten the email yet (assuming I'm not disqualified).

If you got the email, has your status on usajobs changed from received (if it hasn't changed before today)?

At the time of my post... There was no scheduled date for ANY of the locations. It has since been updated, and I have scheduled somewhere close to home. I was trying to help ease other's minds that it wasn't an issue of a shortage of testing locations, but a matter of PSI hadn't updated the schedule for testing yet.

 

[ATCHopeful]

No email for me yet. Hopefully it's not the end of the road for me. But if it is, I'll just apply later down the road.
