I probably shouldn't do this cause it further fukks up my chances, but this forum put me on to the post office job a year ago so I thought I'd semi return the favor.

Until the 21st there's an opening for anyone to apply and become an air traffic controller. The process is a bit fukked up so this doesn't guarantee shyt, but if u aint got anything else going its worth a shot, especially since if you get hired you'll be making some SERIOUS cash very very fast (the salary it shows there is just for during your training)

Reqs are:

3 years of progressively responsible work experience (IE you got promoted)
4 years college
or
Any combo of the 2 that adds up to 3 years (1 year college = 9 months work exp)
Gotta be under 31

You need to create a USA jobs profile, fill out their resume builder and then apply. You'll answer some questions and a biographical questionnaire. If you pass the questionnaire then they'll contact you for step 2 witch is taking the AT-SAT test, and then if you pass that u get sent to OKC to their academy where you'll spend maybe 6 months.

IDK if anyone's interested, but any non IT cert having brehs who aint doin shyt with themselves can just apply and see what happens.

I'm gonna give this a shot. Damn at having to take an 8 hour test on shyt I know nothing about though. But I guess I should worry about getting past the preliminary round first

When I moved back to Cali from going to school in Indiana I was going to pursue my CTI in Socal before I decided to just go back for Aeronautical Engineering.
Glad I didnt.

Id like to say
:pacspit:
at the Head in the DoT for changing the process after forcing everyone in the past 10 years to attend CTI schools and waste 30k+ for the hope of a job in ATC
they finally changed there policies but now their are a lot of people in these training programs at junior colleges wasting there time

For anyone interested.
