In France, you have to take a competitive exam 2 years after "baccalauréat" - our equivalent of graduation. The exams are mainly maths, physics, and Engllish. Then we have some time at school to learn some theory (ATC regulations, aerodynamics, flight systems, meteorology and whatnot...), then get on the job training, which is usually long and painful (more or less depending on where you work). I think it is roughly the same for all European countries, though the contents of the entry exam vary a lot. I guess it would be the same in the U.S and Canada. If you are interested in this, don't hesitate to phone your local Control Tower and/or Area Control Center (don't know what it is ? Ask the guys in the tower !) and ask for a visit. ATC usually love to let people know about their job, and they are obviously the best source of information for you. | ||

I'm an engineering student, supposedly full-time but I'll skip weeks of lectures at a time and somehow still pass. Used to work just as a shop assistant. Now I basically have a range of small investments plus the last couple of weeks I've been trying my hand at poker. I'm slightly ahead at the minute. Still really need to work on it though. Need to read up a bit more to try and increase my EV. A couple of the bets I've done have been real /facepalm. Wow.... You are me. Every detail, even the Australian-ness. Creepy. | ||

I know it's not the most glamorous job comparing to what I have read in this thread, but it pays the bills, not to mention pays more than a burger place, not to mention the work is more structured/predictable. I suppose I'll stick with it as long as I can (especially in this economy with hiring freezes are a plenty) | ||
