Members from the Aeronautical Center’s Human Resources (HR) Department have been busy out in the community ensuring that students are aware of career options when it comes to aviation. On a frequent schedule, HR representatives are talking to students, sharing information about job opportunities across the FAA. Here are some of their recent activities:

Human Resource Specialists, Jeffry Westlake and Tia Bagby represented the Aeronautical Center at a recent Aerospace Career Fair. Jeff is designated as Employment Services’ new STEM/Recruitment Program Coordinator. The event hosted over 900 students, solidifying the need for further aviation recruitment. Those who visited the FAA table had little to no experience, education, or knowledge about the types of positions available at the FAA. The Aeronautical Center’s educational outreach continues to be part of our mission in hopes of building awareness of aviation and aerospace as a career path for the younger generation and young professionals.
