Hi pilotwings, I was at the assessment centre last week and also haven’t heard anything. No call, email or application status update. You’re right about it being a long week! |
Assessment Centre
Finally confirmation today that I'm in, congratulations to anyone else who made it and commiserations to those that missed out.
Those that have described the assessment centre day regardless of how long ago, have done it justice. The tests may have been tweaked and changed here and there, but they all seem to be things that you can't really prepare for - just keep your head, stay calm and obey the rules stipulated |
Awesome work Jazzycab!
Have they offered you enroute or tower? |

Also got accepted today into enroute, agree with jazzy on everything regarding the assessment day, the most valuable thing you can do to prepare is get a good night's sleep beforehand.

Hi all, I'm in the process of Airservices ATC trainee application process and looking for advise and help. I have made it through the first 2 steps and is about to attend the whole day assessment in MEL facility in September. Can anyone speculate the selection rate of this step and/or the previous steps? Any tips on this assessment day, like what's involved and what preparation will be great. TIA! |

If you have what it takes, you’re through... I attended the assessment centre two weeks ago and one of the assessors said they were “hoping to get 13 or 14 through” out of the 50 that attended over the week. This would be an approximate rate of 25% who get through. With that said, each assessment centre would surely have a different outcome in terms of numbers. Good luck in September. |

I have already booked a cheaper hotel off the airport area and a rental car. As I see their facility is to the east of the field and I don't feel like jogging in my interview outfit. Anyone been there think my plan is viable? Without a permit, I'm afraid that I can't park at their facility. If that's the case, Uber will be my plan B, as advertised. |
Hey everyone!
Thanks everyone for sharing their experiences and knowledge about the ATC recruitment process. I also got a call last week about a month after doing the online testing inviting me to an assessment centre on the 8th October. It seems they're running a few of these assessment days. I think this one might be for interstate applicants (I'm from Tasmania)? Anyone else coming to Melbourne on this day? |
Now I'm trying to arrange a meet & chat on Sept 16, the Sunday evening right before the assessment week. Anyone whose flight scheduled to land in MEL before 6:00pm Sept 16th and is interested, plz pm me. so far we got one confirmed and one interest beside myself.

Laudable idea to meet up prior - but lay off the grog completely the night before the assessment if you can, and ensure you get good rest. Even if you're not feeling the effects of a hangover or whatever, it will affect your performance in some way. You want to give yourself every chance to be at the top of your game for this!
|
I have a question regarding the documents you are supposed to bring to the assessment centre. The email asks for a Certified copy of a Pilot Licence and/or Class 3 medical (if obtained). What if I do not have either of those? do I need to go and get a class 3 medical done, or do they not mind if you do not have it?
Thank you! |

BTW, the ATC unit where I used to work overseas, recently got breath analyzers due to some incident that uninpressed the boss. |
