Interdasting...
On Thursday I was talking to the owner of the local coffee shop that I hit every morning. she's got a son in the Navy who's an ATC. Supposedly the FAA's stopped hiring .mil guys for civilian ATC jobs due to certification issues and lack of openings. I guess a couple guys in his organization were in the process of separating from the Navy and got caught up in it, per her son.
FWIW, air traffic controllers in the Navy are ACs. An ATC is an entirely different thing.

Well whatever job he works the FAA used to be in demand for them, apparently not anymore.
Big giant disclaimer:
QuoteTHIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR CANDIDATES WHO HAVE AT LEAST 52 WEEKS OF CERTIFIED AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL EXPERIENCE AND ARE WILLING TO WORK AT ANY FAA AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL FACILITY.
The FAA has Air Traffic Control Facilities in every state as well as Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and Guam.
NOTE-If you do not have a minimum of 52 weeks of certified air traffic control experience you will NOT qualify under this announcement. We hope you will instead consider applying for an announcement for entry-level ATCS trainees currently scheduled to be issued in March 2015.
