Makes me feel a little better being that it seems neither 24th nor the 25th interviews have heard anything yet either,....The CA acting as "tour guide" did say twice that the "yes's" from interviews earlier in the week would get phone calls before "yes's" later in the week. I know and have read on this site that ppl have been called for a class date in what seems like random chronology, but he seemed emphatic regarding how we'd be contacted nowadays. Take it for what its worth though.....fingers also crossed here!!

I interviewed in early January. The guy I interviewed with got called about 2 weeks before I did. Needless to say, I spent a couple weeks dreading that I'd get an email when my phone wasn't ringing. Just remember, it's not over till it's over, so no news is good news.

I didn't think US said no to a whole lot of people? I was told they hire the overwhelming majority of applicants and that the hard part was just getting the call for an interview. I would assume if you showed up, looked good, had a decent HR session, and answered the questions right on the Jepps, its a done deal. No?

I interviewed on the 24th and haven't gotten the dreaded email yet. I hope something happens soon either way. I've been checking my email incessantly and my heart stops every time my phone rings.

There was a post a while back that sounded like the pass rate was only about 60% at some point so it's not a done deal.

Far from it. I bet they hire about 1 in 2 that they interview. I know with close to certainty that the purpose of the questions on the Jepps is NOT to see if you get the questions right.

Two of the guys I know that have been hired didn't seem to see a 50% hire rate...they were more inclined to believe it was higher.

I think it varies a lot. The only #'s I have are for a month in late 2013 and I was told about a 1:3 hire rate. Sometimes they hire everyone who interviews that day sometimes they hire no one.

In your opinion what is the purpose? I have a couple thoughts of my own.
