I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at FAA (Atlanta, GA) in Nov 2021
Interview
The interview was thorough but a great experience. I had 8 questions, and some had multiple parts. I took notes during my interview to ensure I spoke to each part of the question. I let my interviewers know that I would be taking notes so they wouldn't feel as though I wasn't paying attention. I had four members on my interview team. There was close to 100 years of service between the four of them. I was very impressed with their knowledge and time spent in their respective positions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself? Do you prefer to work alone or with a team? What role do you play on a team? What is one weakness and three strengths you have? How do these affect your work? Tell us about a time that you had a difficult situation at work. How did you handle it? What was the outcome? Tell us about a time you made a mistake at work and how did you correct it? Why do you want to work with this team? What are your goals and ambitions with the agency? How do you react with assignments that are outside of my scope or job description?
My year had no interviews. Sent in application and got a tentative offer for it in March. After you accept takes around two weeks to get an actual offer letter. You also send in you fingerprints during this time.
