7C.1 Overview #

7C.1.1 #

The Recruitment Team (Recruiters) have two main responsibilities, these are to manage new entrants during the recruitment process to join IFATC and secondly, to administer all theory and practical tests, with the final say on the result of the test (i.e. pass/fail).

7C.1.2 #

Recruiters are selected by the IFATC Manager based on a number of criteria, including, but not limited to:

7C.1.3 #

The following table outlines the minimum notice period that must{.red} be given to a Candidate/Controller before their Initial or Radar Practical Test (including the test location):

Test Type Minimum Notice Period
Initial No minimum
Radar 24 hours*

*The notice period may be reduced if the Recruiter and Candidate/Controller find a mutually acceptable time

7C.1.4 #

To ensure test transparency (and provided resources allow), Recruiters should not{.red} administer The Initial or Radar Practical Test(s) for any Candidates/Controllers that they have personally trained.
