FAA hiring Air Traffic Controllers; Virtual Career Fair this Wednesday, February 12

Posted by

Today could be the day your dreams take flight. For the next two weeks, the Federal Aviation Administration is accepting applications for new Air Traffic Controllers for positions across the United States.

A career in this field is more than just a paycheck. It's a chance to save lives through proactive approaches to aviation safety, to reduce aircraft exhaust emissions, and help bolster our economy by enabling more cost-effective air travel.

It's also an exciting time to join the FAA. The next generation of aviation innovation is happening now as we shift to smarter, satellite-based, digital technologies to manage our national airspace. We're making America's flying experience more convenient, more predictable, and safer than ever. And as an air traffic controller, you can help us deploy the systems of tomorrow that will guide and track aircraft, both manned and un-manned, with GPS technology.

So, if you're currently a student or someone who's looking for an entry-level job in the transportation industry, you should know that the FAA plans to hire and train more than 10,000 air traffic control specialists during the next decade.

And, the job does not require previous air traffic controller experience or a specialized technical degree. The FAA will provide rigorous, specialized training to ensure that qualified candidates are ready to perform capably and responsibly.

On February 12 --this Wednesday-- FAA recruiters will host a virtual career fair, where you can learn more about what it takes to become an Air Traffic Controller and how to apply for this and other jobs at the FAA. Take the first step today by visiting www.faa.usajobs.gov.

FAA employees help move America forward. We're committed to making FAA one of the best places to work in federal government, and I'm looking forward to growing our family with talented transportation professionals in the years to come.

Michael Huerta is Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration.

Found my sisters mugshot   today.....ísh just got real....so sad. She looks mad and sad all at the same time. Mom thinks having to see her daughter from behind bars will straighten her out...I'm not so sure....I think she has a serious alcohol problem. Both her parents were drug addicts and while she doesn't do the hard stuff she 'loves' to drink. She's functioning, we all like to drink, but she tends to hide certain details from me I'm finding out. But the real dark/sinister truth is beginning to rear it's ugly head. What happens in the dark....

Anywho, couldn't help but to go back and see who else is in custody with her. I saved a ton of images/profiles for future use in stories/novels. When you put the mugshot w/ it you can really get a 2-D sense of who that person is....you know? Like this lil 18/19 yr old  , wonder how long she'll be in for and what she'll do when she gets out. Or this chick with the rap sheet a mile long and a smirk for the ages  , why won't she stop? What prompted her to do what she did? And THIS fool   with tat's ALL OVER HIS FACE! WHAT The......!?  

Also watched some of the dog show  . As a kid this was so cute, now it's just kinda sad.....Total fan of adoption. The charity part  does help though....

That being said, I can't wait to create my own Pittuskies! Blame it on how scared I still am from losing my first dog to early death, Favor was still a puppy... :'( Then my mom couldn't keep a reign on Ice so he got sent to the pound, for a 2nd time, and she just left him there :'( So yea, I've got unfinished business with the Pittuskie breed and since it's not an 'official' breed, I'mma have buy/find me a Blue/Red pitt and pure Husky and make my own......

Edit, I can't stay away, least had to peruse the rings. ▼

Ring 4, those Bedlington terriers are weird/creepy looking with that Mohawk on their snouts....
Roaming, the white terriers were cute, thought they were Bichon Frise's though....
Ring 9, of course the Golden Retreivers were adorable, you can't look at them and not smile
Ring 5, love the brown/black-white coloring of the English Springer Spaniels
Ring 6 the English Setters are funky with their dapples
Ring 7/10, mastiffs are a fav big dopey dog, I just can't handle the drool.....
Ring 8, Portuguese water-dogs, where do they get these haircuts.....
Ring 11, the Siberians!!! It was slightly tempting to watch all 52 min of them; ok not really, most of their coats were a lot lighter than I expected...sigh, love me some Huskies; the Akitas in the background and photo-shoot weren't bad either
Ring 12, Junior Showmanship was cute, way to get the kids involved...
Others: creepy how there are no variations of Samoyeds....
May check out more of the working dogs   tomorrow.
