Hiring Bid FAA-ATO-21-ALLSRCE-73599

WQ in either pool isn’t an automatic selection. They begin with all of the BQ candidates and work their way down. WQ’s are basically a toss up.

All the people I know who applied in pool 1 and got WQ got a offer 🙁 I’m just wondering why

The best understanding people have is they just go down the list from highest scores to lowest until they meet their hiring quota for the bid. There’s still a chance you might get a TOL, there are sometimes sometimes some subsequent waves of offers that go out, but if you aren’t selected it’s pretty safe to assume your ATSA score was not high enough.

I don't think this is true, lots of people who got WQ in P2 got a TOL this bid according to reddit. If anything, pool 1 WQ should've received them before pool 2, right? Also there were couple of BQs who didn't get a TOL this bid and couple from last bid IIRC

There are usually multiple hiring "waves" where they send out TOLs, don't worry too much about it. This is a long process, hopefully there are some updates in 1-2 months with a next wave of TOLs.

I can't be sure here, but I am pretty sure it was only the 20 bid that had a multiple rounds of TOLs go out, and that was to accommodate the group that could not test due to COVID. It's the FAA though, so precedent be damned.

EODS emails received today at 2:38 PM EST. My rep is DP.

Edit: Docs submitted!

For the section of eQIP where they have to contact my current employer, I work for a rather large corporation, would it be alright if I just list my HR at the company rather than my supervisor?

If it says to list your supervisor, list your supervisor. If it says to list someone who can verify your employment by all means list HR

EODS Approved shortly before 4:00 PM EST.

I guess that might be the case.

They closed the bid on USAJobs. If you didn’t get a TOL the first wave they aren’t giving out anymore.

Anyone else still waiting for the EODS to be approved? Submitted mine around 10 days ago

LM said she would be approving them by next friday

All done with my CIL wait until y’all get to the eQIP it’ll make you want to pull your hair out as it brings you back through your trauma’s the past 10 years

Any idea on the timeline for clearances to be issued?

EDCs at the academy are generally 10 minutes max, but I recommend issuing them as soon as possible.

Ahahah i like it, Picasso

Random question but for the E-QIP should you omit any past work experience that was not on the books? Do you just list that time as unemployed?

Is there anything stopping me from going down to the local PD and asking for fingerprints before I receive my CIL?
