Can anyone speak to how long it takes from initial contact to interview offer?
Per their request, after their initial reply to my application, I sent my flight times as well as desired locations last Wednesday, and haven’t heard anything back yet.
I assume the normal timing is not what I can expect - Just want to know when to follow up to make sure I don’t get lost in the process.

Flight Standards has reached its hiring target for FY2020. Some ASI positions, especially in hard to fill locations might get filled prior to September 13 (last full PP of the FY) but those will be based on separations between now and September 30. For Q1 on FY 2020, they are planning a risk-based approach on onboarding ASI's, also based on separation to stay at the mandated staffing number. There are many in the queue who have TOL's, they will be first to be onboarded. If you don't have a TOL, I would expect to wait 9-12 months.

[QUOTE=DrainTheSwamp;3103055]I was to be employed in April, just had the sim check and oral scheduled to take. Mid-March I was told to hang tight, because they didn`t feel they could safely put 4 people in the Sim with Covid still rampant. Received a call in June asking if I had had a 135/121/61.55 Sim check in the last year and they would forego their sim check. I hadn`t, so the word was just hang in there. At least I know all my background checks were passed. I think Covid cases will have to be extremely low before I am called.[/QUOTE
Did you get notified that your background check was complete? I have not heard anything in months. Are they still processing them with Covid?

The reason I ask is that I interviewed, several months ago, for a technical position in one of the FSDOs and my application on USAJobs has been showing "Referred" ever since with nothing but crickets otherwise. I guess my only real option for an update is to email the HR contact in Ft. Worth associated with this vacancy announcement.
Thanks.
