For you new folks how the polling works is that once I get a list of all certs I will create a poll (in this case series of polls) with the locations on there so we can get a sense of how many people are on for each city. I will also try to get a poll up about NORs. I have a busy day tomorrow so it may be in the afternoon before I get everything up.

Wait, but don't the emails go out before the calls? At least according to one post in the "Interview Contact Method" thread the calls are after the email.

You think certs are out tomorrow? They usually send out the You're on a Cert emails on a Monday & give you till COB Wednesday to return your locations and till Friday to get all your paperwork in. Of course, they could do it differently, but that's been the pattern so far for all ODAR's hiring off this Register.

My WAG is since interview calls are going out, then the cert is imminent. I won't guess as to day or week though. Good luck everyone!

And here I am, not at a phone number that odar has on file for me :/ Is there a message elsewhere she asks in vain?? Melodramatic music of your choosing in the background. I received a phone call shortly before this thread started. When I reached for my phone, my finger swiped across the phone to the left, which apparently ends the call or cuts the caller off. So I was a little concerned, until I recalled that it was a local area code. Hopefully they haven't contracted out to this area as no message was left and the caller did not try again.

Typically, emails go out before calls but as someone above said I got the call before the email in November 2014. The email followed fairly quickly so I believe they will go tomorrow but I won't be shocked if it's later.

In order for the interview calls to go out, they already know who in the group of certificates has not been interviewed yet. Like Gaidin said above, usually the emails come out first but they come out in a period of a couple of days since it takes time for them to compile the data for each email. Each person gets a cert list for whatever cities they have and it is attached to the email that is sent. All that takes time. Once emails start people will start asking why they have not received the email yet.... They will come. Just not all at once. Patience.

If the call is from a scheduler they will leave a voicemail if they cannot reach you.

Is it just me, or does it seem odd to anyone else that this thread has not blown up? Gary posted the initial msg at approximately 5:30 PM. Since that time, as far as I can tell, not a single soul has chimed in that he has received an actual call from an interview scheduler. Sure, I suppose it is possible that the vendor/schedulers/whoever began calling non-board members first ( the Puzzle Palace is watching), I'm just sayin it seems awful quiet. Pay me no mind, I am just playin . . . well, you know.

Our house phone rang, and I about had a heart attack. False alarm.

It was probably someone getting a head start on tomorrow.
The caller I mean. They probably got their list late this afternoon and decided to knock out a few calls before heading home.
