It’s on the actual attachment, not in the body of the email

Thank you I found it. No clue why it didn’t occur to me to check that. I feel slow lol

I had the same problem and asked the same question here ??

I emailed my HR rep asking if I could get on the list of applicants to take the mmpi since all my other CIL requirements are done and she told me I have to contact my proctor but my email from the proctor says I have to contact my HR rep ??‍♀️ Here’s to hoping my proctor can help me out instead lol

I asked my HR Rep where on the list I am to receive my EODS. He avoided the question lol.

i cant imagine how many emails they get a day asking the annoying questions we ask all day everyday.

I’m actually shocked at how fast my rep emailed me back (first time I emailed her so far). I expected it to be days before I got a response due to the amount of emails they probably get lol

Just got an email that I cleared my mmpi and medical. Only thing I'm waiting on is security clearance yeeeee

When did you take your mmpi and medical? Just interested to see what your timeline was

MMPI 11/25, medical 12/3, drug test 12/4. I was worried about covid delays so I took my mmpi about a day after I got the email, drove 9hrs round trip

yeah same lol my state and the states around me were all red tier so I called like everything within a 500mi radius of me and was ready to drive cause I knew covid would make the MMPI annoying to take

Officially done with everything, MMPI, medical/security. Waiting for whatever emails are gonna come my way. Hopefully emails that say all clear. Next stop, FOL town.

Jeez, it won't complicate my life significantly if I were to leave my current job for a different job while we all hang in limbo right? Haven't done my SF-86 yet so probably okay to do before then?

If you’ve found a job that’s better for you, take it. It’ll add up to an extra entry on a form at most. Don’t let the FAA influence your quality of life decisions, especially given that they haven’t paid you a cent yet.

My dude, the job I had when I first submitted my resume was 2 jobs ago. You're exactly right, because you havent submitted your sf86 yet, you will just have to make sure that form is 100% accurate and up to date.

Source: I asked my HR rep this same question at the end of November and she told me an updated resume isnt necessary since I hadn't done the sf86 at that time yet.

Still waiting on my EODs ??

You and me both ?

Today I finished my MMPI and my drug test and yesterday got my physical done. So now back to the waiting game

Alternative job is definitely not better than ATC but for sure better than my current gig. If 2019 bid is just now getting academy dates for early next year, and considering that they didn't have quite as much pandemic shitting on their process, I figure I can still clock in a decent amount of time at this new gig before potentially deucing out and leaving for academy. Worst case scenario I don't make it through this bid (god forbid ?) and at least I didn't wait however long to get my life started.

A+ for citation, my friend ?? I read someone's post in r/ATC on End of 2020 US Hiring Thread saying "Just an update for everyone. I got my TOL approved 11/8. Emailed HR today. They aren't sending out any more CIL's or further information for people who haven't received anything yet until January. So don't give up hope, just wait a little longer. " No idea who that is or if they're here or if it's credible info, but I'm gearing up for a pretty drawn out process and keeping my jets cool anyway. No sense in being that guy who tries to speed in backed up rush hour just to get no where lol

Quite a large portion of the '19 bid either has already been thru the academy or has an academy date. I'm going to make a good guess the '20 bid will start receiving class dates mid to late January with our dates being approximately early summer to late fall. I have completed the CIL and just hoping I get fully cleared. I'm currently in college and still looking for internships for my degree program so my best advice for everyone is just to continue living life the way you have been. Don't annoy your HR people especially if the government shuts down tomorrow... From personal experience throughout the process, if HR or any of your other POC's need anything from you they will call and email you including updates regarding clearances and stuff like that.

Alright, I have an MMPI exam scheduled for this Sunday, after having it cancelled twice now. Third time's the charm.

MMPI scheduled for January 4th then I’m done with everything! Woohoo!

HR rep emailed me saying all they are waiting for is medical to pass on clearance info and then they can provide a class date. It's exciting to see that this process is moving along quickly for some of us.
