Bonjour
Can anyone give me a contact address for ATC within the DGCA? I am wanting to talk about employment of a non-french national holding a European ATC license.
Merci beaucoup

when you get the reception ask for "recrutement exterieurs " but it may prove difficult if you do not speak french fluently.
Good luck .
For info, unless the law changed recently, they are possiblities but not for ICNA ( ATCO)

Basically with TWR rating only you have to go for the TSEEAC recruitement (technician), and with all the ratings you can apply for ICNA (engineer). Hope you are not working in Frankfurt TWR or one of the TWRs of London, you're gonna end up in Meaux or Chavenay :E
For the record : 5 ICNA and 4 TSEEAC for 2011
ICNA : 2 Cayenne, 2 Beauvais, 1 Rodez
TSEEAC : 1 Toussus, 1 Saint Cyr, 1 Nimes, 1 Albert Bray
Hope this will help.

Might be too late for this year, but there's nothing bad in trying anyway.
You'll have to pass exams first (part of them in French, I'm afraid).
Then you'll have to start a new training from scratch (almost).
Don't expect to be paid as much as you may be in UK.
And you could be hired as a contractor, not sure there will be a possibilty to move from your first assigned place. :confused:
I knew a contractor who had to get French nationality first, then pass further exams (Ingenieur à la Française) before he could ask to move... it might have changed.
Good Luck ! :ok:

Thanks for the help,
I will contact the DGCA recruitment team and see how I get on. In the meantime I'll keep practicing my French!

Thanks Mana, have checked out Blue sky very interesting. I guess I am going to have to get an ASCERTY keyboard now or create shortcut keys for accents!
