Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Physical testing is often a requirement for positions that involve physical activity or manual labor, but as an air traffic controller, Sylvia's job requires mental and communication skills more than physical ability. However, she will still need to pass medical exams and drug tests for safety reasons, as well as psychological exams to ensure she can handle the high-stress environment of air traffic control. A criminal background check may also be conducted as part of her contingency selection.
