Is it not quite hard to get a job as an atco in Oz? would there not be problems with visa etc and different training requirements?? :rolleyes:

You must be a Permanent Resident of Australia. Airservices doesn't provide assistance or sponsorship of visas for overseas applicants.

Training for overseas ATCs is reduced on recognition of prior learning. I believe this is only considered after successful application with general ab-initio recruitment... but if you look at the Airservices web site above, it provides information for people with ATC experience and a contact email.

Anyone from Oz that can give us an idea of pay and working conditions?

..........and do you get paid during training?

Just wanted to get some feedback from those already there.

RD-

Conditions are ok (but possibly changing, see union link above). Pay is woeful (most senior ATCO gets less then approx US$60k before tax ~40%). You do get paid a token amount during training... us$10k leading to us$20k then us$30k on rating.

U part of the recruitment team now 375ml?? ;)
