additional comments. The information to be collected will be used to

feedback to ensure quality.

    OMB Control Number: 2120-0699.
    Title: AVIATOR (Automated Vacancy Information Access Tool for 
Online Referral) Customer Satisfaction Survey.
    Form Numbers: N/A (electronic).
    Type of Review: Renewal.
    Background: The Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 
(GPRA) Section 2(b)(3) requires agencies to ``improve Federal program 
effectiveness and public accountability by promoting a new focus on 
results, service quality, and customer satisfaction''. In addition, as 
stated in the White House ``Memorandum for Heads of Executive 
Departments and Agencies'' regarding Executive Order No. 12862, ``the 
actions the order prescribes, such as surveying customers, surveying 
employees, and benchmarking, shall be continuing agency activities''. 
This collection supports the DOT strategic goal of Organizational 
Excellence.
    In compliance with the Government Paperwork Elimination Act (GPEA), 
all of our data collection will be 100% electronic using an online 
form; Applicants will be asked to complete the survey just before they 
exit the system. AVIATOR is the FAA's Online Job Application System. 
The AVIATOR Customer Satisfaction Survey is designed to identify 
potential problems with FAA's automated staffing solutions as well as 
to evaluate customer satisfaction with the on-line application process. 
The information is not gathered by any other collection. It will be 
difficult, if not impossible, to improve the AVIATOR system's overall 
performance and customer satisfaction without utilizing the survey as a 
performance measurement tool.
    Respondents: Individuals who use AVIATOR (the FAA's Online Job 
Application System).
    Frequency: on occasion of use of AVIATOR.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: .05 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 82 hours (It is estimated that it 
will take each of the 75,515 (estimated average) external applicants 
three minutes to complete one survey for a total of 3,776 hours, if all 
external applicants choose to complete the AVIATOR Customer 
Satisfaction Survey. The survey statistics show that an average of 2.2% 
of the applicants (approximately 1,645) complete a survey resulting in 
an estimate of 82 total hours.)
