Air traffic control, how long does it take to hear something back after passing the entrance exam?

Question

I received a message from the faa website earlier this month saying my application is being considered, how long should I wait to hear back about whether or not I was selected for an interview? Any additional ATC information is appreciated.

Answer 1

It takes about 6 weeks to hear back.

It may take longer. Be patient.

Answer 2

It usually takes 3 weeks after they post that your application is under review. You will receive an e-mail saying where you are being considered for and an invite to a PEPC (interview, medical, etc in the hiring process).
