ATC IssuesA place where pilots may enter the 'lions den' that is Air Traffic Control in complete safety and find out the answers to all those obscure topics which you always wanted to know the answer to but were afraid to ask.
i passed the first phase... is one of the hardest..except the interview that i failed .... you can practice with making different test online like IQ , and try to do them really quickly ... good luck
You should ask them for a copy of their ATCO recruitment CD which I have still got from 2000 in my application pack. Its called 'Skyscape, Your International career as and air traffic controller' with Eurocontrol. I would have thought it has been updated by now but there are some very good quizzes on there which test both your ATC knowledge and aptitude, and it gives a detailed insight into life as an ATCO with Eurocontol at Maastrict UAC. It also contains interviews/ questions with some current Eurocontrol controllers.
Well worth getting hold of before going for your selection I'd say!
They don't refund travel costs!, , I went to Manchester for the selection and to be fair, it wasn't that costly since am based in London, I would have gone to the London selection however it as all booked up!, then it would have cost me nothing! well next to nothing!
nice.... but for me from moldova i must pay for air ticket about Price calculation. All taxes and charges included Currency EURO 1 Adult x (649.14 Fare and Taxes and charges) 649.14Total : 649.14
Have you applied to both NATs and Eurocontrol? since they are the two that i have noticed is most written about, in most cases in a positive light, I deduct from this as them being the top companies to work for
GhostUK, you can find all the info on their website
As to your question (taken from the website):

Sadly,very sadly i did not make it past the afternoon session, oh well...
what i did want to say is that if you have GCSE's maths and english grade above C ghost and you are under 25, then you have met half the minimum requirements, the next is your eye sight
I would advise if you really are interested you really should apply, I did not make it, but from what i can say about the company is that they sound a great company to work for and the process to getting invited for phase one was quite smooth,
