@BARRY_SCOTT - Excellent, see you there! I'm in the first group too.
@Nostaww22 - Are you in the first or second group? @mich_65 - That is good to know, I did wonder whether EDI would also be APS but I figured it most likely would be since EDI do their own approach service. My e-mail from ANS said 6 months in Frankfurt though so it's interesting to hear it will be 9 months. (One of the previous e-mails did contain some dates relating to Gatwick Assessments so perhaps the reference to 6 months was just another slight mix up.) |
Yep, EDI students are doing both ADI & APS.
|
Does anyone know if ANS are planning on recruiting next year for 2020 courses for LGW by any chance? |
I did ask ANS at the start of the year if any further opportunities were planned or likely to happen in the future, but did not get a direct answer to that I'm afraid.
I see they are now accepting applications for a selection process later this year, but no mention of anything for 2020. If you don't get a better answer you could e-mail them to ask: [email protected] |
Just wondered about previous applicants' experiences-did ANS send an email straight away after applying? Or did you have to wait until after the closing date to hear anything back from them?
|
I’ve sent in my CV as well but haven’t heard anything yet. Hoping they’re waiting until application closing date before they get in touch. |

Still haven’t heard anything from them. I emailed their HR team and they said they’d check but never got back to me. What about you wpg83? Must admit I’m disappointed, I have plenty of experience in the aviation sector. Must need to go on a CV writing course I guess! |

Hi!
Do you know when the training in Frankfurt starts if you get selected after assessment week in September 2018? |
I gave ANS a call this morning and got put through to HR. Apparently they’re going to reply to anyone outstanding this week, and she advised me to block out from the 17th - 20th September for a possible interview. I assume they’re doing 2x batches of 2 days

Hello guys, I have just applied for the trainee ATC at Edinburgh and I wanted to ask, how long did it took to get a reply back?
BTW, good luck to everyone applying here! :) |

Did you hear anything last week? Nothing for me. I'm giving up expecting to hear from them! I need to know fairly urgently as I’ve got a meeting clash in my current work with the big boss, I guess I’ll just have to rearrange it and then look daft if I’m in work after all. I’ve got NATS stage 3 in October so I guess I’ll put my energy into that for now. Hope we hear something eventually! |
Yes I’ve felt the same, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve been inundated with applications and haven’t been able to keep on top of them. Makes me wonder if they’ll do another set of interviews next month as well..... |

Has anybody else heard back yet from ANS? The deadline for us confirming the interview offer was today, but if you call them on Monday and explain no one ever got back to you then I’m sure they’ll make an exception. Use the number on their website, it’ll take you to the switchboard and you’ll get put through to HR. My advice would be don’t hang up until you have a straight answer there and then as they seem very overworked and want to hang up on you pretty quickly. Good luck! |

Yes but I had to be very persistent - I called them 5 times in a 2 week period and sent a couple of emails, and only the 5th call got me anywhere. On that 5th call the guy said if I hadn’t heard back already it was probably a no, then checked his list and said I was on it after all...

I just wanted to know If my applications received or not lol. Bit fast paced for them to give you a Interview immediately without you knowing about it! |

Math

Hi,
It was (in my opinion) quite easy stuff but I’ve always been good with maths so can’t give an objective opinion. We had to solve equations (it’s obviously more than you could possibly solve in the time given - as in all the other tasks too they want to see how you prioritise and how accurate and fast you are etc) also there was a test where you had to complete equations to get to the result. The third mathematical one was calculations with numbers connected to symbols. I think those three were all the mathematical stuff that there was. All basic stuff... apart from some fractions I couldn’t remember the rules :D school is too long ago.. Dress code as I said in the other answer smart casual :-) Hey, Was this a paper pen thing where you was allowed to use calculators? |
Tips
Does anyone have any tips on the assessment and what to look out for please?? (ANS) |
Yes, all of the tests on the first day are pen and paper, with each set of tests described and instructions shown on an overhead projector with opportunity to ask questions if unsure, and a set of examples to work through before doing the actual test exercise. If I remember correctly there was no calculator allowed.
The one tip I would give is, particularly for the calculation one, they get progressively more difficult the further through the exercise you get. So don't get lulled into a false sense of security and think "This is easy, I've got plenty of time." Try to work as quickly and accurately as you can, and don't panic if you don't have time to finish them all - as mich_65 said, there are more generally more parts to the exercises than anyone could manage in the allotted time. If you get through the morning stage and asked to stay for the afternoon stage, it is more of the same. If you are then asked to come back for the 2nd day of testing, the tests will all be computer based, followed by a panel interview. Good luck! |
Assessment
Thanks for the heads up mate. Also does the FEAST test help a lot in the first stage of the assessment or not really? |
Hi All,
I am looking to apply for the trainee vacancy posted at Edinburgh Airport. Unfortunately however it said that the application window has now closed despite advertising until the 21st October 2018. Has anyone experienced similar? I'm a little disappointed and was really looking forward to the selection process. Thanks, Ollie |
Group 1, 2 and 3
Any tips from anyone who was in group 1, 2 and 3 at Gatwick today?
What to look out for or anything of the sort? Thanks |

One thing I did beforehand was practice playing different brain training apps on my phone, to sharpen and focus my brain and get used to learning and understanding new tasks and performing them quickly and accurately. |
Hello there, any update on anyone getting a reply back from airnavigation solution ltd?
