OTS Hiring Campaign “Be ATC” with Bid Dates

[32andBelow]

Imagine if the FAA did a % to retirement if someone was to CPC from a referral. CHP does it. Good job. Try not to tell the world we only work half our shifts, when some are working 6 hours of it lol

Imagine telling a civilian that you ONLY get 2 hours of break a day.

Man I know. I try to make sure to get across that it varies by facility, but I’m sure that gets overlooked.

Lol yeah man I don’t mind it at all. I’ve had over a hundred people at this point keep in touch with me over the years and tell me they graduated the academy, CPC’d etc, and they all had several people in their classes from Reddit… It’s enough to keep me motivated to keep doing these things.

Another one here. You do a fantastic job with those AMAs, keep it up.

ONLY 2 hours of break. Man I remember the bullshit I did for $1 above minimum wage and got two 15 min breaks and a 30 min lunch. I thought I was doing great. Lol

Don’t know how the FAA expects to reach anyone outside of aviation with an AMA on r/ATC, but what do I know!

Didn’t know the FAA Q&A was going to be on r/ATC lol.. guess mods should remove it for rule 1.

Radar Contact if you want to create a thread with the Q & As you get I’ll sticky it.

Not still on it. But I’m pretty sure he got back from admin and probably retired. But idk. He went dark on Reddit

They SHOULD crosspost it to r/IAMA and promote it to the front page... but, ya know, FAA gonna FAA

I'll add on and say your post back in 2019 got me to apply. When I got to my center seemed to be the case for about 1/3 of the other new devs as well

Thanks friend, will do! I definitely worry about my chances but I'm only 27, so I have two more opportunities assuming a new bid each year!

Yes I did, we talked a lot in Reddit DMs. Your threads alone must be the reason for 15% of devs have this job haha.

After 4 years of this you’re probably not far off ?

Im also here from the reddit ama. Got any tips on what to put on the resume? I did use the resume builder on usajobs. I just find it hard to think of traits to put down. Either way I do have a Bachelors In Accounting so I think that qualifies me.

Doesn’t matter. Just meet the min qualifications and then do well on the test

Is there a thread created for the new bid (FAA-ATO-22-ALLSRCE-79187) ?
