Question
I'm working at a glycol plant at D.I.A. in denver and wanted to get into a different field how do I go about getting in to this field. Thanks...

Answer
Hi Ron,
    Presently the FAA is not hiring off of the street.  They have a special program for military controllers and that is all I know that is available at this time.
Go to http://jobs.faa.gov/Allfaajobs.htm type in 2152 in the series box and that will list all opening for controllers.  Watch for an announcement that lists an oppurtunity to take the AT-SAT test.  This is the test that they will use to hire controllers in the future.
Good luck
