Interviews are being scheduled starting the week of Feb 9th. Good luck to all of those who applied! No information was provided about the cities where hiring is currently moving forward, but only that there would only be one interview regardless of the number of cities applied for.

Glad they are starting interviews. ALJWATCH can you share which city? I just checked and there has been no review of my application for Dallas since I submitted it in August.

They were not particularly forthcoming when I asked what city or cities, just saying that if I had applied for multiple cities there would just be the one interview. But, I got the impression that the current set of interviews may only be for cities that they are currently moving forward to hire. Which doesn't help me, since I submitted applications for about 16 cities... Maybe they will reveal more at the interview? Some of my applications in USAJOBS reflect "complete" as of 8/30/14 and others reflect "pending HR specialist" action. So, I don't know that USAJOBS info necessarily indicates the status of the application. Wish I could be more helpful.

When did you get the call? I had only one city that said complete.

Congrats, ALJ Watch! I will report in if I get an interview and hope everyone will do the same. Best wishes to all!

Thanks for the intel, ALJWatch!
If those who have been called for an interview are willing to PM me the cities for which they applied, once I have a few replies I can start posting an anonymous list for our edification.
Good luck to all and congrats ALJWatch!

Not sure this is passing the smell test

Not sure what you mean by the "smell test?" Pixie.

Um, like, is it true? The original poster's use of passive voice was the first red flag. The second was his/her failure to answer the question as to where the call was received. The third thing that has raised my suspicions is that none of the rest of us have received a call.

But...why would anyone bother to post it if it weren't true?

Ummm, a hundred different reasons, usually negative sounding. Why do people hack computers, send spam, lie, cheat and steal? It's not to keep criminal defense attorneys in business Perhaps it's true, considering the 1 February post sounds pretty legit to me. Innocent until proven guilty or proven to be the Dark Lord of the Sith.....

I also sent ALJwatch an email and never any response. I asked the same questions that are shown on this thread.

If you review aljwatch's post history, he is extremely knowledgable about the process, the numbers of recent AJ hires, and the odds of landing the gig. He has done nothing but provide quality information so far in a helpful manner. At this point, I am inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Has anyone else gotten a call? Please note I am not calling ALJWatch's credibility into question. I'm just curious. I haven't been called. But I checked my applications and about 5 or 6 of them have gone to "complete" status since I last checked.

I have not got a call. I did notice that an additional application of mine went to COMPLETE within the past 2 days.
