The one thing that has been consistent with all, is that the initial telephone screening happened 4 months after the application was submitted online. The 1st of those 7 just finished -400 training about 5 weeks ago. I am the 2nd and will start Monday. I applied in Feb 2011 and got the call on June 3rd.(exactly 4 months). I took the test June 8 and was called for the interview the next day. I took the earliest interview offered(one week later) June 14th and 9 days later received the pool letter(June 23rd). 18 days later, I was offered a class date of August 1st. The big mistery seems to be how long people stay in the pool. (I don't have a clue on the pool, but next week when I start training, I will be asking questions to try and get some answers for this forum.) Best of Luck!!!!
Thanks so much for your information on the hiring timeline C17Trap. The two new hire contacts that I have from my regional both got the phone interview call around the 1 month time; I've had my stuff in 3 weeks this Sunday. If you don't mind me asking, what sort of ?'s were you asked on the phone interview? I've heard there is no way of really preparing for that one.
