Re: No Email? Pubnat 2? Information to Record + Possible Rea
So I just got off the phone with OKC and he could not confirm one way or the other that I was or was not selected.... SO I would really like to know who you other people are getting your information from.....:banghead:
On another note, he did say that since the Panel were split by a couple of weeks, the Terminal Selections will be going out for the rest of the week and Enrouts Selections will be going out for the next 2 weeks..... But as we all know, this did come from OKC so its validity is in question.....

That is actually not true at all. Many many controllers have told me exactly the opposite. Flying aircraft CAN (does not mean it necisarily WILL) give you a distinct advantage. Some aircraft can climb faster then others. Some can decend faster then others. If you havent been a pilot and flying some of these aircraft you wouldn't know.
The test really means little. It's just a way of sorting through applicants since they are no longer just using ex military and CTI grads.
EDIT: Oh boomer, lets just pretend this past weekend didn't happen.....
GO MIZZOU!

Re: No Email? Pubnat 2? Information to Record + Possible Rea
I don't see anything wrong with saying "I want to be an air traffic, but only if it is in this area and at this facility." Some OTS applicants have a career/job at the moment and applied to be an ATC b/c of some sort of interest, etc. Maybe she (like I) will just continue doing whatever we're doing now until we do get picked up for a state or facility we prefer.
There are some people who told there FAA their preferences and didn't get a facility in the states they even listed, so if they REALLY REALLY want the person, then they'll offer them somewhere else and you can accept it or decline it.
Yes, I agree, Boise is not "no man's land" but it was just an example...and Alaska is no man's land to me, I don't know about you...would you go to Alaska if the FAA offered it to you?

ATSAT 95.6
PA and MD Geo preferences
If I remember right, one of the posts stated that we should call OKC if we didn't hear anything by the first week of November....hopefully more emails will be sent by then.
Are the PEPC invites being sent out by the specific facilities themselves?

Re: No Email? Pubnat 2? Information to Record + Possible Rea
As long as some people don't see a problem with that then look to be waiting for a long time and to have the possibility of never getting picked up for your facility preference. Plenty of OTS have careers/jobs, but you have to willing to give that up when you apply to a federal job "throughout the nation." Have fun waiting if that is your thinking, but I would be willing to go basically anywhere in the country.
The FAA doesn't really, really want anyone in particular. If someone declines an offer, there is another person who will take it and do just as good of a job.
If I was offered A11 or ANC, I would take it in a heartbeat.

I know bipolar knocked my score around here somewhere, but I can't find it.
I was just going to add (since we really don't know the weighting for sure, or does someone on here know how it's weighted?) that I had 12 years progressive work experience on my application.

haha..no i didnt Knock your score...im just sayin, we both had TX and i have a 96.3, and you were chosen. i have 8 years of full time work which isnt as much as 12, but i doubt that did it. i think they are trying to put people near where you live. just my thought

BIG NEWS!!!
I just talked to the pepc coordinator after hours of trying...Finally talked to her. She was so nice, and after looking couldn't find my name on the list. As I let out that deep breath of agony...she said "wait, what did you score on the at-sat" I told her 97.7 and she responded with "oh, well you were probably picked up by a couple of places at panels. This happens to a lot of people and we don't even know their names yet. The list should be in later this week, after deciding which facility needs them the most." I asked about a the fact that a few of you guys had higher scores than me and already had invites and she just said that it's by chance that you get picked for more than one place. So you can have a high score and already have been picked up or you could have been picked up by 2 and not know yet. I asked if I was on that list should I have already recieved an initial contact email..she said no. So if you have not heard anything keep your hopes up. She told me "I'm confident with your score that you will be picked up, from what I know they weigh most of their decision on the at sat score." We will see how the end of this week plays out....Emails aren't over...:nana2:

YAY! I almost just pooped my pants with excitement. I'll take any sort of news today. I'm suprised the refresh button still works on my internet browswer for my e-mail.
