[Jun Kwon] - Job Ad Analysis

This is the job/company I have been considering to get a position for past few years. I know many people who have applied or going to apply for the exact same position among people in my major. FAA is federal government organization governs United States and other parts of the world’s aviation rules and regulation. FAA is an operating mode of U.S Department of Transportation.

FAA does have a website, www.faa.gov it is a bit dry and boring compare to many other private company’s recruiting pages, however it contains lots of detail and through information is available for anyone to look up. The website even has detail breakdown for a new hire, current industry workers, and even for civilians who might have questions about general aviation knowledge.

One of the easiest place to look up their key value points are on Missions& vision page. FAA mission is to provide safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world, and reaching next level of safety. Their vision mentions again about safety and efficiency, with addition of environmental responsibility, and global leadership. This could sound very vague, however considering without safety and efficient work environment, nobody will want to fly ever again. Some of their key values are excellence, integrity, diversity, collaboration, and Innovation.

The although it is not written on the job ad, it requires the graduation certificate from FAA nominated CTI program schools, and have efficient English communication skills, computer knowledge, willing to work as a group, and high level of stress management.
