Anyone waiting on ATL ?

apmdaviddwife · January 23rd, 2008, 13:11

My husband took the test the first week in January. Anyone else take the test in ATL and heard anything yet? From what I have read on most postings it is taking about a month to a month in a half, but I thought they were really short staffed in ATL. Thanks for any feedback!

I tested in October, and am still waiting. I spoke with someone in OKC today, they basically said that due to overwhelming number of applicants coming in, that they are trying to revamp the way they process people, and we are dealing with the government here. So I suspect it's going to be a while he actually gets in the doors. Do not quit any job at this point!

Don't quit your job until you get your final offer.

Oh no...he is not quitting anywhere.....but is soooo ready to move on from his current job!

We are really short staffed (6 day weeks/every week/ 10 hour days most days) both at ATL and ATL Tracon, but before you decide to come here remember that this is the busiest tower in the world. Extremely hard to check out. We, at the Tracon, have had most not check out and eventually go to Lockheed. Or be fired/quit.

We both worked in the tower in ATL when we worked for Delta...I am just nervous for him. He really wants to do this, so I hope he at least gets an opportunity. Thanks for all the feedback!

I also took the test in ATL (guy with the lucky Red Sox hat on) on Jan 5th, got my results on the 9th ("well qualified" after thinking I bombed). Got referred for ATL on the 24th, as well as New Mexico, Iowa and Arkansas.

Anyone know when FLA/TX/Anyplace Warm is gonna do referrals again?

He took it on the 7th and was placed on the referral list on the 25th. Just continuing to cross our fingers now!
