I completed a phone interview yesterday, and was told that if I was selected to advance, I would get a call within 2-3weeks. I asked if they had a target date for hiring since I was about to be unemployed and was told they really don’t have any idea.

I’m confused because I thought that they were needing to hire FO’s and they know that they aren’t real popular because of upgrade times. Why then would they roll forward for a months long application process into an endless pool of waiting to be hired?
