Airservices Australia Psychometric Testing
On the other hand, word on the street is that the OPQ can scrub you out pretty quick if you don’t fit the AsA mould
Deadlines should remain the 17th unless you got an extention, hopefully this means they’re trying to move quickly from this point on!? (Don’t hold your breath tho!)

EMail from Airservices Australia: The online testing timeframe has been extended to midnight Friday 19 January 2017 & Some applicants may notice 3 tests in their applicant portal (2x Ability Testing & 1x OPQ), if this affects you, please ensure you complete only 1 Ability Test and the OPQ Test.
All the best guys.

Given this is a rumour network then there were apparently 30,000 applications and 300 invited to the next stage of OPQ and Ability Testing.
Apparently the job search on www omitted the word 'Air" so there were literally thousands of "traffic controller" "lollypop backpackers" applying. Oh dear!!

Also; i know there have been issues with it, but tonight just completed the Ability testing but still waiting for the OPQ banner to reappear. Been nearly an hour. was hoping it'd be sooner as tonight was my best chance in terms of available time to complete these.

just wondering whether your second test has become available yet? its been about 24 hours, just wondering what the rough timeframe is between the ability testing and the personaility testing
Take the online testing seriously, and good luck.

I didn’t think that we’d get the ability test/OPQ at the same time, so perhaps they’ve made some changes to the process?

Yeah it seems to be a little more streamlined compared to previous intakes. This time there was only 5 days from being invited via email to being required to complete both ability and OPQ testing. Last time from memory we were given 2 weeks to prepare for the ability testing. Then if successful, an invite was sent out for the OPQ.
Possibly late February or early March for the Assessment Centre maybe...

Does anyone know how much notice they would give you if you made it to the assessment day? I made it to and completed the online tests.
I live in London but am an Australian citizen. I would need 2 weeks notice minimum to fly over for the assessment day.

Did you get a call from a private number? I did get a call twice with a private number but I couldn't take it because of work and all...
Did they send out an email as well?
