Zookie, got a call maybe two weeks after submitting the app. I can't speak to the normal interview process (mine was unique), but for class date they should talk with you over the phone. They might say, "Hey, we've got open spots in our October 5 class." You tell them if it works or it doesn't, then they'll send you a confirmation email with new-hire info.
