in september, and phase 1 in june, so I've been in the game for a while

atcgirl 10th December 2014 22:32

It seems like they were passing a lot more people then. It seems strange that out of 10 people nobody passed, especially since we are all so different. Good luck to you! Keep us updated.

maumau92 10th December 2014 22:36

yeah seems odd, but I don't know how many people actually passed the interviews

atcgirl 10th December 2014 22:43

Yes, I am just surprised that no one even got to the interview, I mean we are already here anyways, why not interview the next day? I think every person who got a chance at phase 2 at least deserved an interview. I don't see how phase 2 tests can predict wether or not you can be a good air traffic controller. I studied air traffic control for 2 years, and I don't see how those tests were relevant to testing your learning abilities and becoming a successful ATC.

Could anyone please tell a few words about Multipass test? What it is like?

PredatorZg 14th December 2014 11:38

well guys in Croatia even if you pass DART it doesnt mean you will get a call for the interview. I had my IQ and personality test on 27.11. and Im still hoping but...
good luck to anyone who made it :)

FPQ
 
Hello,

I'd also be curious about the FPQ. Does anybody have any info?

Thanks!

Planetick 19th December 2014 15:02

FPQ
 
The FPQ is nothing special. It's simply a personality questionaire as in most other assessment centers. You just have to order given statements regarding your personality by importance to you.

Feedback Phase 2
 
Have any of you, who requested it, received any feedback from the Phase 2? I asked for it a couple of days after getting back home but no call yet.

Planetick 30th December 2014 19:01

Same here Timpsi. Requested it the next day and Imke just replied some days after that that she would forward the mail and that it could take some time until I get the information back.

So I guess we'll have to wait

atcgirl 4th January 2015 06:11

Feedback
 
I got an email that said they would call me to review feedback. They called me on December 11, testing was on the 9th.

scrubbleinscreen 6th January 2015 23:14

Greetings everyone. I'd just like to ask you guys who passed feast I, as well as II, as well as interview. After that medical check should come, I'd like to know what kind of things they check there, is there any drug testing and stuff, if so what kind of drug testings and what type of testing. Is there any eye - sight types of testing and what kind of these, as well as kidneys, liver and stuff. I'd just like to know everything, since I consider about applying for the job. THank you very much, I hope that I'll get respond soon. Greetings

Croatia ATC training
 
Hi, I would like to know how to apply for becoming an ATC in Croatia.
Please let me know.
Thank you so much

antoinersca 10th January 2015 22:05

I would catch a glimpse on the local ATC provider's website (Croatia Control Ltd.) if I were you.

Best Regards

Multi pass
 
Hy there! I`m new to the forum,but i`m about to take feast test and I've heard about this ne test, multi pass test. Can anybody tell something about multi pass test? What is the test like? Thank you!

Croatia Control Ltd
 
Source: Croatia Control Ltd.

It does not have so much sense to me!

I do not have an air traffic controller licence with the ACS/RAD rating endorsement and English language proficiency – at least ICAO Level 4.
(I am willing to do that!)

And then they write:

"Suitable candidates will be contracted for a temporary period of 5 years, subject to the successfully completed Unit Training and obtaining the ACS/RAD LDZO Rating Endorsement."

Anyone could explain it to me?
:ugh:

jergui 22nd January 2015 13:39

Hello,

I'm new here.
I want to pass the feast test soon (normally in march, I hope)
I download an app for training me and after I read your advices and delete this app immediatly :)
I'm just afraid about the english interview. Is it very difficult? Because, I know that my english is not perfect. I want to train me.
Maybe can you tell me if there is a good site for learn quickly ?

Sorry for the mistakes. You can correct me :)

Thanks

jarchitect 25th January 2015 20:51

Hi maggamuff,
This basically means they only need one air traffic controller at the moment, they aren't hiring new trainees, they want someone who is already qualified. To get this qualification is normally only possible by being hired by an air traffic control company who will train you to get a ACS/RAD license (you would also then have to work for that company for a minimum number of years before you can leave). Sorry that this does not help so much, you will have to look for other countries who are hiring trainees at the moment, otherwise wait and see what happens in Croatia control!

jarchitect 25th January 2015 20:56

Hi Jergui,
The English interview will unfortunately not be the first test of your English at Eurocontrol, phase 1 and 2 will also be conducted in English and if the monitors notice (especially in phase 2) that you cannot discuss well with other candidates in English it is likely you would not pass to the final interview at phase 3. I would recommend postponing your tests until you have a near fluent level of English!

maria88 26th January 2015 09:15

Hello Jen! Could you give me, please, more details about Feast Dart?!? I tried to practice this exercise on skytest and i wasn t able to understand how to direct the aircrafts.. each of them has specified the speed, the name and its heading- a specific angle.. i guess it has to be a link between this angle and the direction of the checkpoints..no? Sorry for disturbing you, but I read that you had the second part of the Feast and tought that you might be able to explain me. I m a bit desperate becaused soon i ll have the dart and i really can t understand how to direct the planes. Thank you a lot, in advance.

Multi pass
 
Could anyone please tell a few words about Multi pass test? What it is like? Do you need to prepare in addition to this test with some background technical knowledge?

Thanks

DIANNA 31st January 2015 22:06

dart
 
Hello Maria88, you'll find info about dart at page 54.I have the feast test in february at romatsa, but i know that feast1 doesn't include dart...

first Comparative test for candidate ATC - content?
 
Hi everyone

I am totally new here.
Belgian National, 27 years old. I work at BRU airport, airside for a ground handling company.
As some might knew Belgocontrol is in search of 12 new ATC's and 3500 (!!) people shown their interest, one of them is me.

Few days back I got an invitation for a first 'comparative test' as they call it, and i'd like to know what to expect from that.
Is that already the first part of the FEAST test I read about here, or is that a first 'filter' test they 'll use before doing the FEAST (since it seems costly and time intensive to let 3500 people do that test...).

Anyone has a clue, or experience with former selection rounds at Belgocontrol?

Thanks in advance!

maxpilote 21st February 2015 21:53

Hi, I'am also in on March 3rd but I am directly invite to the feast test. I don't know how many we are but it seems that we are a lot! I wish you the best! ;)

ojogoana 9th March 2015 22:50

Multipass
 
Is there anyone here who would be so kind to help us with some info regarding the new MULTIPASS test?

I know this test was introduced in July 2014 and some of you already took it, therefore please help us with some instructions... just to have an idea what is like!:confused:

Timpsi 13th March 2015 09:21

EC Training?
 
Does anyone know or heard of anybody that passed the FEAST, Multipass and Interview?

Did they get the 8 candidates they needed for training in spring of 2015? In that case, when were the last tests done by Eurocontrol? As far as I know a couple of months ago the rumours said that nobody had passed. But that might've changed by now?

KriVa 15th March 2015 15:17

As far as I know, there are no other tests than the FEAST tests for the initial rounds.
My invitation mentioned the first comparative test too, but on the day itself, the presentation only showed FEAST as a way of selecting candidates.

Adri4164 24th March 2015 09:31

Dart
 
Hi Everyone, particularly who had already passed the Dart test,

I'm practicing with Skytest, but I can't find out what is trick of the efficient guiding. Do you have any advice? How can you find the most direct route? How can you do it with the least heading changing?
The real test is similar to the Skytest?

Thanks in advance: Adri

everhard9 26th March 2015 21:37

Feast part 1
 
Hello everybody,
My question for those who tried Feast part 1 is : at the cube folding test, how many cubes do you have to compare to the net? Is is 2 and the option for none, or 5?
Thx

ECTL15J 1st April 2015 13:40

Afternoon all,

I see a few of you have been asking about the latest round of recruitment, so I can confirm that eight candidates have been successful and start training in May.

EUROCONTROL are still accepting applications, which will be held on file for the next opportunity, details will appear on the website closer to the time.

Hope this helps!

carinah 6th April 2015 16:06

Hi, can anyone please tell me about the feast multipass test?? I have no idea what it is :confused:

Feaster 16th April 2015 20:14

Dart questions
 
Hello everybody,

Can anyone please give me some advice?
I have passed Feast 1 and I am waiting to be scheduled for Feast 2 DART.

1. Does it matter how many instructions (turns and altitude changes) you give to the aircraft?
2. How important is the lateral distance an airplane passes by the waypoint ?
3. Does it matter how long the entire route an aircraft takes? I am referring to it's trajectory.
4. Are the aircraft repositioned directly above the waypoint (like in skytest) if they fly to much distance to an waypoint? If so, does it freeze and wait a few seconds for you to input the right heading?
5. If you crash two planes, will they disappear?
6. Crash = Fail ?


Thank you very much!

ATC_Hustl 18th April 2015 08:06

@Feaster

My personal advice about the DART and a thing you did not mention.

Pay attention to the numbers that you will hear and have to sum.

I was taking the test and had only 1 conflict on the second test of the DART. But obviously did not write all of the sums correctly, because there was a guy with 4 conflicts next to me and passed the test. - which is why I attribute my failure to the incorrect input of the numbers.

Good luck!

Timpsi 21st April 2015 19:46

@ECTL15J
 
How can you confirm that 8 candidates got accepted for training? Do you know anyone that got accepted? Then they must have had more groups after late september because no candidate up til then did pass for the interviews.

Do you know when these candidates had their Phase 2, approx?

Cheers!

appoll 29th April 2015 08:14

@Timpsi
 
I know for sure that a guy from my Phase 2 group was among top 8.
We underwent our examination in mid - September.

Tchocky 1st May 2015 17:22


I know one person from the 8 that got accepted and they're starting training May 1st or 4th.
Considering I'm heading to a leaving party tonight for one of the 8, it's probably the 4th ;)

Timpsi 5th May 2015 19:15

Oh, well congratz to the ones who got selected. I did my Phase 2 in december so then they did it some months before me. Best of luck to the chosen ones! :) (I wont be able to apply again since I will be over 25 years by then...)

Feaster 8th May 2015 14:48

Thank you very much ATC_Hustl!

Does anybody know if the order the aircraft pass the waypoints is important?
I mean if waypoint 1 is passed by Aircraft A1 then by A2; at Waypoint 2 does it matter if A2 goes first? should the order of aircraft passing the waypoints be maintained?

Does anybody know anything about Feast 3???

KriVa 12th May 2015 19:51

There is no FEAST 3. At least not for the Belgian selections. After the two FEAST tests, there is an interview process, and a medical test.

Feaster 13th May 2015 13:39

It seems to be a newly introduced test in the entire Europe.
Has anybody taken it ?
