Sorry that this is another request for info but here goes,
I'm currently an ATCO working in the UK, and I hold 3 ratings (TWR/APP/RADAR), was just wondering if anybody knows what my chances would be of getting across to work for NavCanada?
I've checked their website and they say they are currently not hiring but is this the case? Plus what sort of experience do they require? Would they prefer Area rated ATCO's?
Any info would be very much appreciated, even if it just bursts my bubble of wanting to work there!
Cheers
:ok:

Depends on who you work for in the UK.

If it is NATS at present you might find it a bit more difficult to transfer to Nav Canada due to an "agreement" between the two companies. Pm me for info if you want.

I am sure Jerricho and Cossack and others will be a useful source of info.

Experience wise you need at least 5 years plus.

I believe there is a possibility for tower rated bods (as per the web-site).

Send me a PM, I'll have to do a little digging around.

Definitely some APP/RADAR rated people wanted out west Canada...send in your resume, that may help for starters. Other suggestion: Know anyone who works in the company? Very useful way in....
