FAA CRASHPADS Just 5m from the FAA Academy!

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

Just because there are class dates coming up doesn't mean your FOLs will be coming out. It is entirely possible classes won't be full, or could even be cancelled if necessary. The class dates do not determine when your clearances will be approved. Without the clearances you aren't going to class. Plus there are plenty of people still waiting from previous years bids that could potentially fill the classes.

I kinda figured that too but I searched for any posts of people looking for roommates or trying to connect with people with the same dates as I've seen done before, but I couldn't find any. I realize it's totally possible that they're on another forum or something or they're just not posting, but I was kinda hoping it was a good sign while trying not to get my hopes up too much ?

Gotcha. Didn't know if they tried to rush people through clearances in order to meet the class date max or not. Good to know.

This! But more than this, that "cream of the crop" goes to OKC and can fail. If they survive that, they can go to a facility and FAIL. I'm impressed and confused all at the same time that this process is so in depth and yet still doesn't quite nail it down.

I don't know about y'all, but I can't fail. I'm not going back to what I was doing. I refuse to take the L

Are you the guy that had applied prior to this bid and had his clearances transferred?

Nope, I got mine deferred until May 17th. I was given April 2nd initially, but I asked them to delay it.

Congrats! Did they send you a paper FOL, or was it just the "we want to see if you can accept this before we write the paper FOL?"
