Date: September 23rd, 2009 12:32 PM Author: talented factory reset button trust fund Had a screen in late August, haven't heard a word. Are they usually this slow or should I assume ATD? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1093843&forum_id=2#12815649) |

Date: September 23rd, 2009 12:33 PM Author: ocher deer antler Where did you hear they had a screen in late August (and what exactly do you mean by "a screen")? I thought apps weren't due until the end of this month. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1093843&forum_id=2#12815662) |

Date: September 23rd, 2009 12:35 PM Author: talented factory reset button trust fund Sorry, I meant I had a screening interview in late August. The guy interviewing me said a hiring committee meets every two weeks.
I guess if I still hear nothing by October or so, I should give up? |

Date: September 23rd, 2009 12:41 PM Author: ocher deer antler yea sorry I have no idea... but it's interesting you had a screen.

Date: September 23rd, 2009 12:44 PM Author: talented factory reset button trust fund The FTC goes to a couple of job fairs in August. There was a bidding process like OCI. Bidding period was early or mid July I think.
I hope I'm still okay, but since this was so early maybe I'm fucked since I haven't heard back yet. |

|
Date: September 23rd, 2009 12:36 PM Author: talented factory reset button trust fund I was talking about honors program.
I e-mailed the recruiting person to ask what's up two weeks ago and she never responded. Maybe she wants me to fuck off or wait until after September 30. |
