There is a 'no relevant experience required' job announcement to be an air traffic controller opening up on USA Jobs from July 30th - August 2nd. These openings do not happen often; maybe once every year to two years. Great benefits, pay, etc - probably one of the highest paying jobs that don't require a degree. 

I did look into this position because I am genuinely interested in changing my current career path and this type of work has always seemed interesting to me. While researching, I found this exact position being offered on the faa.gov website with a "Minimum Requirements": 

 

I tried searching for this specific position on USA Jobs and used the accurate open/closing dates to apply and couldn't find it. I'm assuming it will be posted once it hits 12am but not entirely sure as I see other positions with open dates listed in a few days/weeks from now. For now I've prepared my profile and resume on USA Jobs and am waiting to see if it gets posted at 12am.

I applied anyways. All you really need is 3 years of work experience. It took a while. About 4 hours to be precise. Mainly because the FAA website sucks and would not load. I ended up fully submitting my app at around 4 am because of how laggy the website was.
