I am holding out hope for some afternoon calls, since most have been later in the day.

There is NO way to know whether they have stopped making calls yet. It is simply too early. Unless someone reports they are the caboose and was told that.... keep the faith people! I cannot repeat this enough times... they WANT to fill as many spots as they can. I know it is hard to stay positive but just DO IT!

I think that more offers will come this round of hiring.

I have a conformation from a board member for an offer and acceptance for New Orleans. Pix. Well it was not to me, I guess I am out. Good Luck to you all. It's been fun I liked this, but then I unliked it because I didn't want to like the implication that "you're out." There's lots of room in Louisiana for ALJs, don't assume you're out. Not that I mean to be positive. I hope it has been established that I am very very negative on this right now. But wiser board members have explained convincingly that you are still in the running. Also, if you take a hiatus (as I will do imminently, most likely to many people's temporary relief), please come back. Distance is helpful for recovery for a while, but with all the time and emotion invested, you may as well keep checking in...

So am I correct that there have been no reported offers today? Or did I miss something? So this is to be another class of 12 or so? Crazy times.

On a happier note, for whatever strange reason, isn't about 20 minutes from now the normal time of day calls start when there are very few of them? Maybe.........

Yeah, exnicios - You're only out if you take yourself out. And that might lead to a happier life, but SSA isn't done hiring forever, whether or not you get picked up on this round. There are several locations already that have multiple slots. If you want to keep hanging in, like lots of the rest of us, you're welcome to stay.....

An insider has heard from Bob in the last 30 minutes that they are still making offers for 9/21.

Exnicios, if you look back at the July Cert poll there are 14 other people that didn't get New Orleans. I didn't get an offer for my cities either, but I take some comfort knowing that other well qualified people are in the boat with me for the same cities. I have come to terms that it is out of my control, phone will either ring or not.

Many have fallen back during this Ironman or Ironwoman competition, which is the ALJ selection process. Unless one remains strong and focused on the prize, you will find yourself surrounded by despair and negativity. What do these feelings bring you? Go and enjoy life and your career. At the most unexpected moment, your wishes can become a reality. Now, I will enjoy some situational bourbon and wait until kickoff of the Michigan game.

Do presently open certs which are not filled by COB on Sept. 30 automatically close or can SSA continue to hire for those certs into the new fiscal year?
