Hi all, new to this so please bear with me!

Just wondering if anyone could help with information on how you would go about transferring your European Licence to work in the USA, or even if it is possible. And also what is the job situation like at the present time in the US.

Please feel free to PM with any help greatly appreciated.

To work in the US as a ATCO you need to be a US citizen.(That applies to FAA and the contract towers). The FAA and contract towers have a constant flow ex-mil ATCO's to fill the spaces. That said some units are constantly short so i am led to believe.
