Is it a pool system where I can pass a class date and still be eligible to accept another? Or is HR of the "take it or leave it" attitude?
If you know that you want to come back to the states, put in your 90 day notice now and goto a regional why you wait for a class. Otherwise, you can wait until you're hired and tell them your situation. They were good about working with me on coordinating my class date and I was unofficially told I had a spot in a class about a month out. The regular business rules are that they fill up a class before they start offering the next class dates. If you go back to the middle east after your interview, I'd recommend completing the drug test prior to leaving the states, you can not complete it overseas. However, I'm not sure if the drug test is valid for 90 days or not. There is about a 7 day turn around on the drug test and you must have it completed and the results back to the company prior to starting training.
Good luck...
