There was a scandal at the ATC which has culminated in a lawsuit Brigida v. Buttigieg, and from what I remember the facts look bad.

They replaced a skill assessment with a completely bizarre biography test where for instance you got +15 points if you listed science as your worst subject, but 0 if you listed math, English, history or P.E.

Then they leaked the answers to black organizations, as well as special keywords to put in their resume to go to top of the pile.

The students who spent years and thousands of dollars and aced the skill assessment but then failed the biographical test are suing in a class action.
