That's great to hear guys! I had a missed call today so hopefully I find out some good news tomorrow. Congratulations!

Good to see a few others joining me too!

Share House Melbourne
 
Hi there

I’m also starting Dec 6 as enroute Brisbane based.
I’ll have the accomodation issue for down there, if anyone is in a similar boat and wants to get a share house together please PM me.

Congrats and good luck to you all.

corza 14th October 2021 06:33

Received my verbal offer today for an en route course in late March. I'm very excited and this is perfect timing for me. December would have been tight to make happen.

The process was the same for all nationally. Online aptitude testing, followed by a recorded video interview, then a virtual assessment centre via Teams in lieu of the face-to-face assessment centre.

Lucy Wu 15th November 2021 08:18

Anyone applied recently? I just completed the online testing. Waiting for response now.

Pilot_ATC 30th November 2021 03:58

Hi all,

Congrats to those who got through the last round of applications! I have just completed the video interview. Was just wondering if you guys could provide more info about what the assessment day involves! Cheers

Online testing
 
Hi everyone, can someone please tell me the difficulty level of online testing as compared to SHL free test assessments as i scored very badly ( around 40% ) in them. Just need to figure out if it's worth pursuing or not.

corza 2nd December 2021 00:58

Good luck Lucy Wu.

Pilot_ATC, make sure you get a good nights rest. Its a good experience and something you will enjoy. Good luck. :)

Stuggler 2, I would suggest working on the SHL assessments. If you have already put an application in and have been invited to participate in the online testing then you may as well give it a red hot crack. Withdrawing or not making it past the online testing both count as one of your two application attempts. Good luck. :)

Online Testing
 
Hey guys,

In regards to the online testing, can someone confirm to me if the maths component is "Numerical Calculations" (As written in the ASA email) or is it "Numerical Reasoning".

Thanks for anyone's help...

I know of someone who applied in Sep/Oct 2021. Did first assessment early Oct. Then moved on to further online tests. Did video interview in early Nov. Has now been invited for assessment centre in Feb 2022. Hope this helps.

That wasn't really what Pilot_ATC was saying lmao..

TYFY_resilience 10th December 2021 03:51

Anyone pass the online SHL tests and have now been told about a series of new online tests? Seems to be different to the online virtual assessment day that others were given. New step??

Gavin Kukard 10th December 2021 03:54

Hey everyone,

Just to let you know if you were interested, I applied on the 15th Nov 2021, then received instructions to do online testing on the 3rd of December which I completed this past Tuesday (the 7th). Then today (10th) I received 3 separate emails with instructions to do another set of online tests. This caught me a bit off guard as I thought the next step would be a video interview, and then an (online via Teams?) assessment centre?

Has anyone else been involved in this process during the past few weeks? Anyone know how these second tests are?

Cheers, Gav

Gavin Kukard 10th December 2021 04:00

Hey TYFY_resilience , you inbox says its full mate. Tried replying to your message. Cheers, Gav

TYFY_resilience 10th December 2021 04:35

Tried again... Cheers.

Indeed, however in line with the rest of this thread I am unwilling to disclose the specifics of the assessment session.

Plover. 10th December 2021 22:29

From the information session that was run recently I believe the current online recruitment process contains two different sets of online testing from SHL and Domain.

I am in same boat as you asked to complete it by 17th. Bit nervous to click on the link as it says if you click it once then have to complete the whole module in 1 sitting. So I am taking my time for now.

ares32 13th December 2021 13:20

Greetings guys, first post here. Was wondering how the application process goes for the "Expression of Interest" listing air services have on their website for air traffic control trainee?

Allyjay 13th December 2021 20:33

Hey guys.

Is there somewhere that outlines what's involved in obtaining a class 3 medical certificate? im nervous as ive put on a few covid kgs

Gavin Kukard 14th December 2021 09:31

Hey Allyjay,

Have you completed the online tests and received your feedback already?

I applied in the mid November run, and am busy with second round of assessments at the moment. 5 down, 2 to go.

When did you apply?

Cheers! Gav

DavidBall1884 15th December 2021 08:42

Has anyone done the online assessment virtually and can give me a heads up about what to expect?
====================================

Gavin Kukard 16th December 2021 00:24

Hey guys,

For those that did the application process for the mid-September cycle (@Corza is that you?), did some get offers to start in December (last week), and some in March?
I am just trying to gauge how long the process takes. I have done the second round of online assessments, cut off date was tomorrow the 17th. Hoping to figure out timeframes from here on. Anyone have a timeline of events?

@DavidBall1884, I have done them, but there is no way to accurately explain to you what to expect anyway. There is no way to give yourself an edge over other applicants either. Your brain is either going to function in that way or it isn't, and everything is against the clock.
I have no idea how I did. Its just a wait and see (and hope to high heaven) exercise now I guess.

I wish you well in the tests mate. Good luck!

I did the application process in the June/July cycle. I have already accepted my offer and waiting to start in the new year. :)

I would say a couple of days after you should hear back, but that being said we are close to Christmas and most Government organisations have a couple of weeks stand down for non frontline employees.

Gavin Kukard 16th December 2021 21:06

Ah thats great man, congrats!

@ Corza, thanks for the motivation earlier for not abandoning my application half way as i just completed my second phase of online testing. Any chance if you could tell what's the next step would be, if I make through this.
regards

hey mate, just wondering how did you go with spatial assesment and were you able to complete the both cognitives one. As I am bit nervous could not do great on the former and could nt complete the later.
regards

Gavin Kukard 20th December 2021 00:09

Hey mate, spatial being the radar one with the flying numbers? I had quite a few collisions, mostly near the edges of the screen but yes I didn't save all of em.
As for the cognitive ones, I didn't finish either one. I think I managed to get most of the way through the first, and did 41 out of the 50 on the second. Not sure at all what the benchmark is here. My only hope is that all of us managed about the same.

Thanks mate,

yeah flying balls were not that great either for me, most I struggled with the aeroplane positioning. but anyway, did you hear anything from them yet. let me know if anything come across, I will do the same.

Regards,

DavidBall1884 21st December 2021 22:43

Hey guys, just an update from me here.

Completed the online virtual assessment, now been asked for references. Looking good but not getting hopes up just yet. Will keep everyone updated - this will be for a March 2022 start.

DavidBall1884 22nd December 2021 02:48

I got an e-mail after the assessment center asking for references! Fingers crossed! Will update all.

Gavin Kukard 22nd December 2021 12:19

Hey David, were you part of the applications that closed on the 15th of Nov? And did they tell you it would be for a March start?

Gavin Kukard 22nd December 2021 12:20

Struggler 2 Nothing yet mate, profile still says "Application under review". Yea let us know whats happening. Will do same.
