Extreme hypothetical. I was an early January hire and thus far 1 person from my interview group was given a class date, likely as a fill-in, but we have no clue. Considering there will be no June, July, August, or December classes, it leaves a very narrow window to allow for any more industry speedbumps. Someone said the CJO is good for 1-year, so if classes are further canceled/delayed and that expires and the minimums go up, would I just be hosed? Or will I be given some priority as a previous CJO?

I noticed that candidates from May 15th and 22nd class dates are being bumped up to earlier classes. Just curious if they are trying to empty out the mid to late May classes. Especially since there isn't June, July, or August classes.

Noticed that as well, but I was also told that 3 from the Jan 10 interview/CJOs were offered May 29 class dates. This was last Friday. Maybe the bumps are to increase class sizes or to fill seats of people deciding to go elsewhere. I was bumped up from May to April myself

I accepted the 29-May offer and also let recruiting know that I was available for an earlier slot should one open up.
They let me know a few days later that 1-May class start date was on the table if I wanted it. There was a deadline within which to respond, or the deal was off the table and next applicant on the waitlist would be offered.
In the 1-May WhatsApp, a few of the 1-May folks report that they also originally were offered a later start date that slid to the left. One of the 1-May folks left the 1-May chat due to being offered an even earlier April date.
This type of roster-shuffling prior to an expected start date seems like the norm. My sense is that nothing will be solid until day-1-butt-in-seat.

I had a similar experience. CJO:9-Jan, Class Offered: 29-May.

I am curious as to how and why they select certain people from certain classes to backfill earlier open slots. Offering 15 and 22 May candidates an earlier class in that month or even a month early and yet I haven't heard from recruiting offering me an early class date being an 8 May candidate. It must be that I have that U.S. Army stink on me!! JK of course
