Yep I passed Stage 1, I have booked 14th for my Stage 2. See you boys there!
There is a lot of Stage 2 advice on the preceding pages Scottish-ghost, although as they are aptitude tests, I found a good sleep and a hearty breakfast in the morning set me up well (for a success) last time around.
Longer term, I didn't think it hurt to practice mental arithmetic in the lead up to the testing day.

Stage 1 - Numeracy Tests
sambatc - do they still do the numeracy/compass tests in Stage 1 assessments?
Info I originally printed mentioned them in the hints and tips but checked site today and application process has been updated, no longer mentions any numeracy test

Will see you folks around on the 14th, that's 3 days before our Law exam so you'll probably find all of course 233 in the hub with the nose down the books...
Was a lot of people in on the other day btw, stage 1,2 and 3 on the same day, so looks like recruitment is going full speed at the moment!

As far as I know , yet I may be VERY wrong , paying for training and graduating one of the "atc colleges" doesn't get you anywhere . I mean every ATSA tests , trains , employes , people that pass their selection process. Of course if you want to get employed by some private ATSA controlling small airports , go ahead , but it may not be the thing you dreamed of .
Sorry if I was very discouraging , but it is for your own good !

Hey all! how is everybody ^^
Was just wondering, if any of you people who took the stage 1 on the 4th of December heard anything.. I went in at 9.30 in the morning, although had my appointment for 10.30... We were 4 in total for the "ATC test".. in the end, the lady read 3 names out, which i wasnt in.. and I thought "ok.. thats the end of it..". After they left the room, the other lady smiled and said "congrats", I was shocked ofc :P
Was it also a small group for those of you who took it at 13.30?
Best of luck to all of you!

Stage 3
Hi everyone,
I have a question and I hope somebody can clarify the problem I have :-)
I've been sent a link to schedule an interview. I read on the NATS FAQ website that if no date is available, we just have to wait till new dates are posted. I'm wondering if that answer still applies if the link to schedule an interview says: " There are no available time slots remaining for this interview. Please contact the hiring manager listed above to schedule an interview time."
Someone experienced the same in the past? :-)
Good luck to everyone participating in the selection process!
Regards

Yes it's perfectly normal . The one thing that you won't get notified for is when new slots are available . Check every day ! Some waited months , even a full year . In this session dates will come up real quick ( 95% probability ) so stay calm , take a chill pill !

Yes, and be deligent with your checking! At least once a day, every day. These dates seem to be flying off the shelves this session, and you don't want to miss your chance!
I waited over a year between stages 2 and 3, just the way the cookie crumbled for me!
This session has been an aweful lot faster. Don't worry about it!

Stage 1 Again
Hi guys,
I've just been accepted for my stage 1 down at Fareham on 7th January.
Got to stage 3 a few years ago but never applied again however just decided to last week.
Question is do they still do the Numeracy tests at stage 1? S=d/t etc etc?
Anyone else booked on it on the 7th also?
