Re: ATC - 2nd Interview

From the research I have done it is indeed possible to go from VFR to IFR, but the prospect of that happening within any reasonable time is slim. The issue is that I am currently making, lets say $120,000 and have a family. I am willing to take the risk for IFR, since the possible pay off is signifi...

Re: ATC - 2nd Interview

The good news: My light turned green and I passed the 2nd interview.

The bad news: I am placed in the VFR stream.

This means that for me this process is over. Should have started this process 10 years ago, but as they say, hindsight is 20/20.

Re: ATC - 2nd Interview

My second interview is done. The recall question is indeed to verify that you are the same person as in the phone interview. For me there was 10 months in between the two, so that made for some thinking....

Now I wait.

Re: Navcanada and age discrimination

Statistics prove people over 35 have a drastically lower chance of success than those younger Perfect, that makes my drive to succeed even greater. Just so I can understand the statistics, can you provide a link to the report? I always like to read study methodology, test group selection, statistic...

Re: ATC - 2nd Interview

I guess things are moving again in YYZ. Are you guys hoping for IFR or VFR? From what I remember, I *think* there's a September VFR course scheduled (so be prepared to get on your paperwork and medicals ASAP), and IFR for Spring 2011. I am hoping for IFR. Actually, any other option and I am likely ...

Re: Navcanada and age discrimination

Doesn't make any sense to have you in for a second interview if you don't fit the profile and you stand no chance to be selected. I doubt they would waste their time on it.

I guess we'll see. I have my second interview on Monday. I am 37 and have no aviation background.

Re: ATC - 2nd Interview

I was supposed to have my 2nd interview at YYZ today. Unfortunately I did not make it any further than the reception. Apparently one of the interviewers had to leave for an emergency and I will be contacted to reschedule. So basically I am back to waiting for a phone call.....

Re: Who's all waiting for a training offer?

This is my first post (Hopefully of many) I have my second interview this Monday July 12th at YYZ. It has pretty much been a year since I started this process and almost 10 months since my Phone Interview. I was actually very surprised to get a phone call, specially considering I have not sent NAV C...
