Or just go for it and try get a CJO? I heard they are valid for 1 year but that’s not realistic to expect them to hold that for me. Family commitments and financially it would be impossible for me to start so soon.
I realize it was my fault for keeping my app out there but I would still love to get a shot at United and just trying not to burn bridges. The other option I guess would be to just ignore the assessment and reapply when I’m ready but again, is that going to burn me? Need to move quick as it’s due in 2 days. Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
I just got a CJO and while I plan to take the first class date offered, they told me during the interview they foresee having class dates every week for the foreseeable future, and if the class date I was origially offered didn't work they'd be willing to work with me. They just want to be sure you can commit to 12 weeks of training uninterupted.
