My exact thoughts, I believe VA have group seniority, so their current atr guys get a crack before me,which is fair.
Still would have thought that if you I met minimums, I would be tested to some degree, same as at qf. I guess testing costs money so they’re not prepared to assess everyone with 500 hours.

I’m not too concerned, currently in a good job with a few other opportunities.
