Nevermind! I just realized how to see how many are going. There are multiples of certain ones. Thanks for the info. Only 1 person going to my top pick. Praying that it's me!
 
Tomorrow should be interesting. Facilities I racked-and-stacked #2, #3, #5 and #7 are picking up zero.

If they really do try to place you in one of your top 3 selections, I hope that means there is a decent chance to receive the facility I placed #1.

After reviewing the list I received - and ranking them based on personal preference - I then used the Terminal Facility Placement list to help me solidify the rack-and-stack. Eight of my top 9 facilities all had their first reservation for experienced hires in the top 300. My bottom 7 facilities were ranked 460+. Hope that strategy works out!!!

From what I've seen (not to say this can't change), if your 2nd and 3rd aren't on there, 99.9% chance you got your top pick.

What facility is that?

S56

This would be the first time I've ever seen that.

In researching...
The terminal placement list updates continually with data from the Staffing Workbook. It was updated prior to finalizing placement. From the moment the list went out (8/11) to when the data was pulled (8/16) here's how the data changed. S56 had 2 trainee's certify during that time. With a training success rate of 58.7%, each trainee is counted as .587 toward their projected average, where as each CPC is counted as 1.0 (100%). With two people certifying, it knocked their top spot on the terminal placement list down 166 spots.

In no way will it make you feel better, but having 2 people certify in a 5 day span is an absolute freak occurrence. With their top spot knocked down 166 spots here's the rest of your list and how many spots they had available before S56.
A11 - 5
N90 - 124
P80 - 8
R90 - 3
U90 - 1
Y90 - 2

Again, it's the first time I've ever seen a facility basically rescinded off of people's list. I don't know where you ranked N90, but given all the attention it has received over the past few days, it certainly creates a potential wildcard scenario.

I put n90 last.
Here is how I ranked them
1. S56
2. P80
3. R90
4. U90
5. A11
6. Y90
7. N90
 
Not gonna lie, it stings a bit seeing my #1 & 2 from back in April be on the list multiple times since then and picking up so many lol.

Ranking N90 last is probably your saving grace. Without direct knowledge of the situation, I'm going to assume after S56 was updated, they had a hard time justifying placement there when your second choice had a considerable need. If I was a betting man, I'd say you're P80 bound.

I need more emotions other then "like" to describe how I feel about this. Just brutal. I really hope you're enjoying where you're at but come on FAA, you had one job!

Yeah, they really dropped the ball on that one ha. So far so good though, just a slow process, unfortunately. Everyone is cool and the management relationship is great as far as I can tell, so that's nice. Just hoping they send more people after me because practically everyone is trying to move on so as soon as cert's happen, should be seeing some departures.
 
For those waiting, emails went out at 4pm the day after assignments were made in previous batches, I'd expect something similar today.
Let us know where you guys end up and we can help you get in touch with people from your new facility.
 
The next placement cycle is in the next two weeks. It wasn't clear if they meant next week or next next week.
