accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d)

Title: Application for Employment with the Federal Aviation
Administration.
Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this
collection. Information is collected via the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM) online USAJOBS system and the FAA's Automated Vacancy
Information Access Tool for Online Referral (AVIATOR) staffing tool.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: Under the provisions of Public Law 104-50, the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) was given the authority and the
responsibility for developing and implementing its own personnel
system. The agency requests certain information needed to determine
basic eligibility for employment and potential eligibility for
veteran's preference and Veteran's Readjustment Act appointments. In
addition, occupation specific questions assist the FAA in determining
candidates' qualifications so that only the best-qualified candidates
may be hired for the many aviation safety-related occupations.
