Applying as a Veteran

ATCplease Newcomer

Hello,

Recently separated, trying to figure out this application process. I have researched and tried various networks for answers but to no avail.

My questions are where do I apply, since aviator is no longer being used. I have created a profile on USAJOBS but need to upload my resume. That being said, do i just search for "air traffic specialist" and hope something comes up before submitting an application? There has to be a general way of applying to two states, correct?

I appreciate all feedback and help, thanks in advance.

You can't apply now because there is no hiring announcement. When it comes out, it will tell you what you need to do.

Are you VRA with ATC experience or just a Vet?

VRA with Radar ATC experience and WS. Also, to MJ, so how will do I find out when announcements come out?

The panels are generally in march and october, applications open up a few months before them. If you visit this site once and a while, you will know when they are open because there will be 600 threads about it.

Well your WS means nothing..

But the FAA has been doing bi-annual hirings for the past 3 years. If it continues the next job announcement will be Aug-Sept 2012.

Fastest way to search is..
Www.usajobs.gov
Advanced Search
Where it says series type 2152

Nothing is up now, but Aug-Sep something will be.. Plus check stuckmic it will blow up with posts.
