Congratulations! I didn't make it past the written exam.
Do you mean the Cataldo one? What was it like?
Maybe you can't tell but I'm wicked stressed about not having a job yet.

Thanks! I'm dyslexic and have a LOT of trouble with maps...aside from that it didn't seem so bad...
Sadly, I haven't heard anything just yet. Somewhat nervous.
The more I think about it, the worse I feel about this. I'm starting to question decisions that I made during the practical. :wacko:
Yeah, not hearing from them had me overthinking everything too. I feel better knowing that I'm not the only one that hasn't heard back yet though.
Through the power of snooping on these forums, I see that it tends to take them a long while to get their act together for contacting people. I had thought that I overheard the lead guy tell a few people that it would only be a few days, but perhaps I misheard. I didn't get the same speech as others, though. Perhaps they were ALS.

I thought I heard him tell someone it would be "about a week"...so we could definitely hear from them in the next day or so. I've been overthinking everything like crazy, too, but the nice thing is I'm pretty sure they'll be contacting EVERYONE, not just the people who passed, so we won't just be waiting indefinitely for the call that never comes...
Yeah, I think you're right. Just hope it doesn't take too much longer to hear back. I'm wondering if I shouldn't call on Monday if I haven't heard anything by then.

I was thinking Monday as well, maybe Tuesday. Its that fine line between "people who follow up on things are good" and "um we said a week, doesn't this kid listen?"
Plus there were at least 25-30 people in my session and who knows how many in the other, they obviously have a fair amount of candidates to review.
I was thinking the same. I think there were about 25 people in my session as well (I was in the afternoon session).

I was in the afternoon session too. I ran into a couple morning session people in Dunks, I think they said they had about 30ish? But I really don't remember...I was in freakout mode at that point.
I was in the morning session. We were packed pretty tightly. Someone was sent out to find more chairs at one point. When I walked in (a mere five minutes before the appointed time; damn traffic), I nearly died at how many people were already there. <_<
I sat in my car in the parking lot for a while (I got there wicked early) and when I got in there, 15 mins early, there were only 3-4 seats left open.
When I took it they said you should hear in about a week. I think I took it on a Monday. I had not heard anything from them and it was bordering on 1 week and a half to two weeks. I called and they scheduled the interview right then and she said she was still calling people for interviews. So it may take a little more than a week. They have 1 hr person and I think an assistant. Hopefully you all passed. If anyone has any more questions you can PM me.

That definitely makes me feel better...I'm just hoping I passed, the guy doing my practical told me I looked like my eyes were about to roll back in my head. Very reassuring...
Yeah, I agree, thank you. I think I'll give them a call on Monday.

For those who are still waiting...I just gave them a call to follow up. The woman on the phone said that the test results weren't in yet and that they would be in probably later today or tomorrow. She said phone calls/emails would be going out by the end of this week. I'll probably follow up again on Thursday if I still haven't heard anything.
Good luck everyone!
