FPQ stands for Feast Personality Questions.
You can find example here:

Hi, i'm new to this forum and i jut completed second phase of FEAST tests (DART) and i have a few questions regarding them.

There was 1300 aplicants for the job at phase one, 200 of us were accepted in phase two and i'm wondering how many usualy procceed to phase three?

I finnished ex. 4 with no errors and with no corrections of headings, ex. 5 was quite hectic and i had about five conflicts and one near miss in ex.6 i had no conflicts but i entered a few SUMs incorrectly and made a loop with one of my planes. Those, who finnished and proccedeed to phase 3 what do you thing my chances are? Probably very little chance but still, did anyone proceed with so many critical situations?

Nobody can tell you how many will stay for second part of phase 2.
It depends how well people done it. It can be 80% or 30% but you will see for yourself.

I think you done DART ok and you should pass if everything you wrote is correct.

Do you have Multi Pass test after this?

@PPG

Is the Multi Pass test aka Phase 2 the same as the "group assignment"? Or is this something else?

Phase 3 would be the interviews. I passed Phase 1 and waiting for dates for Phase 2 at the moment. Anyone else?

Phase 3 is FPQ. Phase 4 is interview.
Multi Pass is also done on computer, it's not group assignment.

Okay! At EC they told me that Phase 2 would consist of a "group assignment" the first day and if you passed this there would be an interview on the next day, Phase 3. Thats what they told us anyway. Maybe they cound the FPQ and Multi Pass as Phase 2?

Maybe it's different I don't know.
If they told you that, then it should be that way. Follow the instructions

Hello,

yes i really hope it was enough. For first phase there is probably a minimum score required to proceed to phase two, what about phase two?
Does the best few % of applicants proceed or is there also a minimum score required and everyone above that proceed?
I've never heard of Multi Pass test. As far as i know after DART testing we have FPQ and then the interview.
I'm currently not so stressed from what awaits us in the next round i'm just anxiously waiting for the invitation (:

Just got my invite to Phase 1 testing. Was wondering if anyone has travelled from anywhere in the North of England and has any advice on the best way to get to Maastricht? I thought flying would be good but the only places seem to be from Glasgow or London and I'm near Manchester. Would trains be better?

@ blazzzoubek

Hi.
We didn't get any results from the test. We just receive email if we pass or didn't, so I can't tell you is there any % you need to achive. I pass DART test and I did almost the same as you described

I understand you perfectly for waiting for results..that is the worst - waiting period

Hi guys! I am the new one here.

Has anybody passed till the second stage of ATCOs selection in Maastricht this year?
They invited me for the second stage. So does anybody has any information or an idea about what will be there? And also if anybody is coming to Maastricht for the second stage from anywhere, let's co-operate!)
Right now I am in Brussels and will stay here till 29th of November.

@cemah - you will need a activation from skytest support that's why there isn't any available download.

Hey! I have also been informed that I passed Phase 1 and will be invited for Phase 2 in "the near future". No invitation yet though, so I'm just waiting impatiently

For what date did you receive your invitation?

Morning, man.

Look, actually I have also been only informed about that I have passed. And they have said only that this 2nd stage will be somewhere between 22nd-29th of November. I was wondering, if anybody else has got this "invitation" and so has known what will be there.

So I am also waiting.

But it's good to know that I am not the only one.
Anyway for better co-operation we can exchange with our facebook, if you want.))

DART

Hi,

I received invitation for part II of FEAST - DART - 4 days (weekend included) after completing first part. I'd done DART 21st of this month and I still didn't receive any information at all. Is this normal? I applied at national ATC provider.


How long you usually wait for the information?

Hi!

Just for example: in my country they informed us in 15 minutes after the test if we have passed. So I think it's a better idea to call them and to discover if you have passed.

Good luck!

@MickMannock Check your inbox mate!



@KristianControl, did you do the test with Eurocontrol or are you talking about ATC in your country?
