Hiring Bid FAA-ATO-21-ATCEXP-71144

[Mr. Mack]

People were declining their initial lists of facilities in hopes they’d receive a different list. Huge gamble.

They don’t allow that anymore. You decline, you’re waiting for the next bid to reapply. They changed it a couple years ago

I got CID, it was my number 5 pick but I’m kinda excited as my #1 was DSM. Does a level 5 up/down hurt your chances of moving up to a level 8+?

 

[JMan1997]

I’m not 100% sure but I believe you can NCEPT to any level but you can only hardship 3 levels up.

I’ve been reaching out to my HR rep about my medical clearance and getting the same reply. “Not yet.” Is there anyone better to reach out to about that or is this the nature of the beast?

Contact the medical applicants email. HR typically knows nothing and will claim as much. ?

I’ve been told by several friends that a 4 or a 5 is the way to go if you want an easy in, easy out to transfer to a 9+ And a 6-8 will keep you sitting for several years waiting for the panel to approve your ERR. Guess we are about to find out how true that is. ?

What did you get? I emailed the Captain the other day so your spot must be the opening ?.

Facility level doesn’t mean much with transfers, if at all. It’s all about staffing (current/projected) percentages and what criteria the NCEPT panel deems justifiable for releases.

[Whiskey Tango]

That’s the plan. They have my drug test and security stuff done but still waiting on medical. Going on 5 weeks now when everyone else I know had theirs done in 3 or less so now I’m harassing them trying to see what’s going on.

Same, my medical has been with the flight surgeon for review for almost 60 days, they stopped replying to my emails.
