EC age limit?

[elcrusoe]

Does anybody have any knowledge of the age limit at Eurocontrol? I know it is 25, however is there anyway to get a waiver on that....like right now i'm 25 but well i would only possibly apply next year which would make me 26. Is ther any cases of them hiring beyond the age limit or is it not flexible at all?


Thx....

What do ECTL say?

You've asked them, right?

[elcrusoe]

Well no i haven't asked them, i'm not a real big fan of HR offices since they always give u the roundy round to find a simple answer therefore i prefer to ask the actual public.......but well if nobody can help here i will have to send them my inquiry.

If you already have some degree in aviation they MIGHT still accept you, no guarantee however. Best thing to do would be to take Gonzo's advice and just contact them.

Well i'm a controller already but i always wanted to go back to europe since i grew up there and well got alot of history there more then here but well it seems so difficult to accomplish cuz the ATC here and overthere is so different. And from what i have heard they really don't consider any FAA experience really experience......

But we will see i'm not keeping my hopes to high....since i know in this career we are all picky hehe.


But i read on the site that for now they are not looking for people passed the 25 range in the FAQ......another reason i'm on here to get the inside view?.......

How is the staffing at EC......never hear anyhing bad news from there end....?
