Thanks, I agree win you in principle while heartedly. I also have a great deal of respect for those that served. Some of us couldn't because we were turned down for reasons not worth getting into on this forum.

However, the way it was said was very condescending in my humble opinion. In a retort, talking about how a civilian would take a lump sum pay in the form of a bonus was even worse. This isn't my first rodeo, nor is it that of many here. Each of us has to make informed descions based on the future. To say that this is a retirement job is just plain insulting in my unqualified opinion. That's all I'm saying.

Anyone have any insight to the time frame of CJO to getting called for a class date?

Someone told me they were about to drop the TPIC requirement. Any truth to that?

Just my own situation:
Applied when window opened
Interview 19 August
References (only 2) called within 2 biz days
Phone CJO Sept 2
Email CJO Sept 8
Class date (earliest avail): Oct 7

The CJO'd guys (50%) in my group had similar timelines, but don't know how common that makes it.

Good luck!

Machnerd...were you actually given an October 7 class date or just the earliest to expect?

Good question. I am on a similar timeline (interviewed a day earlier) and still have not heard back about a class date.

Applied when window opened
Interview 18 August
All References called within 2 biz days
Phone CJO Sept 2
Email CJO Sept 8
Still no word on a class date.

Same boat here, August 19th interview, September 2nd CJO. No class yet.... I know they said within 14 days so No biggy, just curious how long on average before class dates are offered.

Question; Does a CJO come after the DB has met or can one be offered prior to the DB?
