Received a call for my EOD today. Unfortunately, I am still under a Service Obligation for the military and they can not "lock" you into a location until you are 60-days from departing the military.

In other words, I will have no idea where I am going to live until 60-days out from departing the military. If you are in the same situation as me, throw the conditional offer away.....it is worthless
!!



Received Formal Offer today, scheduled my date for as early as I could. My offer is for Platts. Hoping that it is working out. I am currently a little over 4 months out from starting and they don't have FLETC dates for the new FY yet. Anybody else in H60 guy's shoes, where they received a conditional offer for a specific location, and then had it become a vague or unknown location if you can't start before 60 days out?

Hope all is well,

See you tomorrow,

CRA


Dutch, These posts I found on aptap.org... They were dated on the 22nd of August. I hope we hear something soon. The one guy said his BI application was received in MN on the 13th. Hopefully that means the formal ones are coming soon...

I just wanted to write and say there is NO NEWS. The wait is killing me. Anyone else besides Dutch and myself out there waiting? (Assuming you are still waiting Dutch???) Also just keeping the thread going, looks like it is starting to die....

I got an email reply with a score of 91 a couple of weeks ago. Is this a competitive score ? and if so how long does it usually take to get some kind of call?

GRDHound,

check out my post on page 14 #138. I am not sure if 91 is enough anymore or not. I think it changes based on need and where you are willing to go for the job. I wish you luck. My score was not much higher than yours...

Guys, I know Ive posted this before. I recieved an email reply from CBP. "You are eligible for this position and your test score is active in the inventory. You will receive Notice of Results within couple of weeks."

This was Aug. 5th. How long did it take to get your score? Do you think I should contact Team B? Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Byebyeairlines,

Still waiting. This Thursday will be the fourth week for me. I am willing to make a bet that it will be very soon, possibly mid September. You mentioned the 5 week mark is the magic number. I hate waiting.....

Dwn3grn,

It is a crap shoot. If you received the email about a month ago, then it could be anytime now for an interview date. I just don't know.

D.
