In that case, maybe the test is just far too new to have been included in the current selections at Belgocontrol, where only FEAST 1 and FEAST 2 are being used now.
Perhaps they'll include a new, FEAST 3, test in the future too, but as of yet, that hasn't happened.

Most of whom will then be too old unless management can be convinced they're on a totally wrong tack

I am applying for trainee in Croatian control.

This years tests have 3 rounds
1. personality test from home computer
2. feast + dart at their location
3. team assignment

question: what could "team assignment" be? please describe any team assignments you have encountered

thnx

hello!

In the feast test, when playing with the divided attention test. Can I use the numeric keys which are in straight line or you can only use the numpad? Or you can use whatever you like in the same time?

Thanks

You can probably use both pads...

Taking it on February, doing some research as well...

MUAC are recruiting ab-initio student controllers again:

Becoming an air traffic controller | Eurocontrol

Thanks! How does "multi tasking test" looks like? Does anyone know? Is it some kind of strip management atc kind of games feat some extra addon task? It might be some new thing. Couple of years ago there was no such part of the feast test.

feast test dart 2
 

hi, I will be doing the eurocontrol feast test, Is it true that there is another test called multi test control with the dart section?

and in the dart testing the will we have a lot of inactive aircraft?

can any one who did the dart test last year respond.

thankss

inactive aircrafts
 

hi in feast test 2 , there will be a lot of aircrafts? and the active aircraft are all together in the same screen orelse if you pass one, another one will appear?

Can someone help me?

The site says you have to be younger than 25 on the start of training and that training courses start in October.

I'm currently 25 and don't become 26 until November. Do you think I'd be able to qualify?

I got pretty close last time and this would be my last chance.

Well, you can at least try... One month is still possible, I believe...

I did the Feast and DART at Eurocontrol last december. Got to Stage 2 testing but failed there unfortunately. Now I see that their age restricition is not to have turned 25 years as of October 1st 2016.

I turn 25 two weeks before that date, which feels really !!!!ty. Can they really make an age restriciton? I guess they can make their own rules for applicants but somehow it might be viewed by some people as a form of age discrimination? I mean, does the EU regulations allow this? Just a question! :)

Unfortunately you are almost 2 years too old, the requirement is:

Not yet be 25 years of age on 1 October 2017.


Yes they really can make an age restriction, and have done for a long time.

Too old!
 

Such a shame that the maximum age is 25, it seems like such a low age limit! Strange to think that those in their late twenties and early thirties are considered too old. Oh well :hmm:

It's just basic economics. An unsuccessful trainee costs a lot of money, and a successful trainee costs even more. Training, on average, lasts 3 years. Retirement age is 55. They are just making sure they are getting their money's worth and the new trainees are young enough to put in at least 30 years of service (well, to be very precise, 27 years of service).

Also, a younger applicant is less likely to have a family (therefore, less distractions during training) and more likely to have absolute freedom in moving away and dropping everything for training and the job. It's not discrimination - it's common sense.

Feast test 2 Eurocontrol
 

Hi, I would like to know if anyone did feast test 2, last year or this year.
Feast test 2, is only the DART section??? plsss helppp (the strip section has been removed?

thanks

It is. FEAST test 1 will be during the morning. If you pass, you will be asked to do FEAST test 2 (DART) right away.

I passed FEAST 1 in Romania and am scheduled for FEAST 2. I heard that besides DART there is also Multipass. I practised alot on Skytest and they just had an update to the software adding a Multi control test (kind Of strip management but also with flying planes you can guide). Does anyone know if this is similar to the multipass in FEAST?

I have also passed Feast 1 in Romania and I am waiting for Stage 2, though I have not heard anything about a Multipass for us, how sure are you SarasanS?

That makes 3 of us going to FEAST 2 in Romania ;)

i am quite sure. i spoke to someone who succeeded on the last round and they had the multipass with the radar. i just heard it is similar to skytest but don't know which exact simulation and coudn't learn a description of the exercise.

Then we'll have it for sure and all we can do is to be relaxed, sharp and well rested. Wish they would have posted the shedule for F2 already, I keep represhing their page :)

Eurocontrol feast test
 

Hi,


First of all good luck for stage 2, please can I ask you a question reference stage 1 English part, is it listen comprehension only or you have other tests?
We would be happy if you can give us some information about multipass cause I heard that there are two types of test in stage 2 - dart test and multi control (the strips thing).


Thanks and good luck.

Vetran, F2 will be in May, a fellow candidate called them.

Defel, english has 3 parts. Listening and comprehension, then shot essay on a given topic and spoken interview. The most difficult is the first.
However there is another comprehension test at Feast 1 which I found a bit more difficult than the one in the english exam.

feast test 1
 

thanks for your reply, did you do the eurocontrol feast test?

thank you SarasanS. Last year it all went a bit quicker but it looks like they put us on a hold this time,I wonder why..
Also what you said about the English test is accurate,though I think that this part of the exam might be different from country to country.

That makes 4 of us :) Good luck guys.

good, the more the merrier!:) it's all happening soon now as they announced the dates. Will we take DART and if successful Multipass in the same day ? any news on that ?

Last year they did them both in the same day, there was no restriction to pass to the multipass test. I don't think they will change it as there are still candidates from the last year and it wouldn't be faire to change the rules.

thanks, I didn't know how last year was. so we must expect for a good 3-4 hours exam right?fingers crossed now. good luck!

5! count me in!

Anyone scheduled for tomorrow? Good luck!

Anyone who took the exam these past three days have any tips for us?

How was DART ? How was Multipass ?

Thanks.

Anyone for tomorrow?

I am later this week, but not tomorrow, how about you ? Also, does anyone know how many spots are open for grabs this year ?

I had mine today, it was an interesting experience. I am positive, i had 2 issues for each test but I think I reacted quickly, i don't know how rigurous they will be but I am confident. We will have thee results most likely between 8 and 10 June but is for sure that we will have them after everyone has finished.
The whole thing lasts for about 4 hours so get a good night sleep before have some water with you and something to eat (they do have a buffet if you wanna get smth). I can only advise you to read the instructions very well.

I don't know how many spots they have for this year but I know they are in great need of ATCs. Last year they had 45 spots and they got only 16 or 18.

Good luck everyone, let's all meet at Constanta ;)

great news afusaru, I am glad that you are positive after the tests and I think you should be with only two issues.

let's meet at Constanta!

bafta tuturor! i'm next week!
how was the exam?
was in 2 parts, DART and Multipass? what is multipass about? any tips...

sper ne vedem la o bere in Constanta!

hi!
