Here are the qualifications for the job:

You must
  • Be a U.S. citizen
  • Be registered for Selective Service, if applicable (Required for males born after 12/31/1959)
  • Be younger than 31 years old before the closing date of the application period (with limited exceptions)
  • Have either one year of general work experience or four years of education leading to a bachelor’s degree, or a combination of both
  • Speak English clearly enough to be understood over communications equipment
  • Be willing to relocate to an FAA facility based on agency staffing needs.

It's hardly an elite group of people... until they get their ATC certification.

That's because nobody has any idea what to test for in identifying who will make a good controller.

The FAA has its own academy in Oklahoma City.

That is where they train their Air Traffic Controllers.

Students at the Academy have already been hired by the FAA, and do not pay tuition.
