Thanks, guys, wonderful information.
Interviewed at DFW Thursday, reference checks went out Friday, waiting on a phone call. (GA ops inspector)
For those interested, I applied July 21.... interviewed August 14. Certainly appears to help to have someone in the office pushing your name up the chain.

I'm not looking at the announcement that you are referring too, but if it says '4 year degree required', and you don't check that block, you'll never make it past the HR screening. I'm sure JNB or PerfInit will correct my statement if hiring for Flight Standards follows a different HR track.

That is the minimum for the 1825 series. As you answer the questionnaire, you will be asked how you learned certain things. One will ask at what level...degree, graduate degree, etc. That will lower (or increase) your rating. I have seen people who said they were experts on everything, and clearly were only experts on checking the highest level box on the questionnaire.
