Back in February I received an email that was forwarded to me by my girlfriend, which was forwarded to HER by her father, which was forwarded to HIM by one of his business partners. It read as follows:
Knowing that I'd be graduating college in May I felt this would be a great opportunity to transition into a fulfilling career. I'm now waiting on confirmation for my Chicago PEPC to do California Terminal.
What's your story? How did you learn about the FAA's open casting call?
If you have or know kids between the ages of 18-31 with a high school diploma. The Federal Aviation Association is taking applications for air traffic controller school. We all have kids and know kids in the right age group (under 31) and with some effort they could reach a salary of over $100,000 with benefits in about 3 years. You need only a high school diploma to apply and credit is given for college on the exam. They need to go to http://www.faa.gov/jobs/job_opportunities/airtraffic_controllers/ for details and to fill out the application immediately even if they don't
know if they'd want to attend immediately - it's the federal government and it may take them months to call. The key is to apply NOW. There will be a lot of retirements coming up rather quickly and they need to line up training to accommodate these openings. It's my understanding that the FAA rarely has an open application such as this and that the jobs are coveted. The person who shared this has a 28 year old daughter who is well into 6 figures and has plenty of time for travel/recreation and has started another career on the side.
