3:48Now PlayingIf you're looking for a promising job opportunity, then you may want to consider aviation.
Over the next five years, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) plans to hire more than 4,000 air traffic controllers. Those certified professionals can bring home a six-figure income. The application window starts today, and the FAA hopes more young minorities will apply. Wayne Hubbard is a National Traffic Management Officer for the FAA and started with the agency in 2008. He hopes young diverse talents will consider a role with the agency. According to the FAA, more than 80% of the controllers are male. Only 10% of Hispanics are controllers, while only 7% of those in the role are Black.
