That is not new, NATS mentioned this the first time in February I believe
from the NATS careers facebook
currently, you will be able to apply from October, but from 1st April this will be changing and you will need ti wait 24 months in between applications. We are freezing recruitment from March but we can not at this stage say how long for.
That was in February, they also say the same day that it's due to eurocontrol guidelines.
The FAQ on their website reflect the same information
If I am not selected can I apply again?
Yes. You can have up to three attempts with a 24-month gap from the date at which you fail. If you are not selected, please do not be too disheartened – the selection process is tough. Because training is very expensive, we have to be very sure about our selection decisions.

The new recruitment process seems very nice . It's a win for NATS, diminishing costs/time for result check/stress/human resources and its a win for the candidates as well who have to fly in only for FEAST tests and the interview so everyone should raise the roof . Overall it's a nice change except the 24 months gap.

ONLINE RECRUITMENT
NATS' online recruitment is now active. Stage 0 throws in something more except I am mistaken; an online verbal and numerical reasoning tests!!!
Stage 1 seems to now consist only of Spatial and Diagramming tests......
ATC motivation paper is now a Stage 2 process.
Anyone able to throw more light on these.....

It's hard to acknowledge the failure being soo close - twice. I guess I'm just not the right person - that's my dreams of being an ATCO shattered for good!
Hope the rest of you have more luck then I did!

Stage 1 - Assessment dates
Hello all. I'm looking for a little piece of information regarding the assessment dates for stage 1.
I received an email on 05/03/2013 inviting me to the assessment. At the time, there were time slots available but I am just finishing my degree so wanted to focus on one thing first. It has been almost 2 months since my initial email.
On checking the email regularly for available dates, so far there hasn't been any available. Is it normal for this delay in available time slots and is it likely that more dates will be added soon or is it likely to be over 6 months?
The message on my email reads the following: "There are no available time slots remaining for this interview. Please contact the hiring manager listed above to schedule an interview time."
Thanks.
