Default Update

The employer is currently screening applicants for two hiring groups. I don't know the results yet, but if they don't have any objections I'll provide some general feedback as to what backgrounds made people competitive.

There is a potential for additional opportunities down the road, I'll try to get the word out again when the time comes.

Rick, would that be GA or BS? I worked down there at S.V. on the Hunter for TRW/IAI

Well, I sent my application in a few months ago and never heard a reply, so I guess they got who they needed.

If you get this job, I hope you like the desert. You will start in the Mojave and then go to Iraq.

rickair, howlong of a contract do you have to operate these UAV? If the money is as good as you say, any Health care and RET. 401K stuff offered. Sounds interesting, any chance to getting more info concerning this position.Any locations in FL. USA still needs to keep an eye on Cuba/Gulf Mex for smugglers ect.
