Whatever the merits of robg's analysis, and what the interviewers may have thought at the time, Kolekole is correct that the offers will go out the week of May 18, not a week earlier. Sorry. You will just have to wait the extra week. Thanks for the post odarite. As y'all must know, you can take this to the Bank. (Or to a date for a major distraction). Ideas anyone? I ain't too proud to ask...

In this particular game, there is not a lot of anything you can take to the bank. However, my sources on this are pretty reliable, and since - as was pointed out earlier - much of the brass was not in FC this week, I believe this particular fact to be true. Right now. While I type it. What will be true in the future, I can't guarantee. The interviewers who thought May 11 were undoubtedly going on the best intel available to them at the time. With the June 22 report date, though, there is not a lot of room for more slippage and still give people enough notice.

Odarite,
Do you have any thoughts on whether the offers will come out all at once or staggered for each training class?

Last year, if memory serves, virtually all of the offers went out the same day. My guess is that if May 21st dawns without word from ODAR, start looking forward to 2010.

Last year, offers seemed to go out as planned for the initial classes. However, the target date was not met for the final class and they were making backfill offers up to 2 weeks prior to the start date. A number of people in the Aug class did not make it to their hearing offices prior to training because of the late notice. Not sure what held the offers up, but something did.

To the best of my knowledge, the offers for those they can reach by email (which will be almost everyone) will go out the same day. the June and July report date will be filled from the current certificate. there will be a second (small) certifcate later, and offers for that class will be separate. best guess.

I am uncertain that this is the appropriate place to post this query, however... My references have been contacting me this week that they have been contacted. I was interviewed the third week of April. Is there any significance to this post-interview checking, other than that the background checkers are inundated? Am I just too stressed and attempting to find have an explanation about something that is either insignificant or has no significance? Sigh. Thanks.

I think it is of no significance, but then I'm not sure I understand the exact question, and the comment about the checkers being inundated is puzzling.

Last year there were background checks past the supposed cut off date.

My references were checked over a month ago and credit report pulled before that, but on Thursday I got a call from Omni wanting to know who could confirm my self-employment since 1997. I admit there was some head shaking there.

waiting1, they are still making the calls. I'm a reference for a number of people on the cert, and just got a call on Thursday about one of them. No significance to the date; they have a lot of calls to make.
