Has anyone who interviewed Phase I and II with HAL the last six months, and subsequently received an email stating that you are still under consideration, then actually been called back in for Phase III? Seems that those that are called back for Phase III are usually called back right after they complete Phase I and II. All the people that I know have heard back within days (or less than a week) after Phase I and II.

Also, anyone who has experience in this: Those of us who have been waiting for 4 to 6 months to hear back, do we get any sort of special consideration towards the end of the window? Or will they keep calling in for the interviews and selecting the top point-getters until the end of the window?

It's been a long wait and some of us have put job searches on hold because of this. HAL is a premier carrier and top choice of mine. I would have a hard time going through the recommendation/interview/class/IOE etc... at another carrier only to quit if HAL calls. Burning the bridges of friends, colleagues and company HR reps along the way.

Thanks!
