This afternoon I talked with the very nice folks in the People Department for the second time in the last week.

Again, after welcoming me to the "pool" she very kindly informed me that she did not have much information as far as future class dates. I was part of the October 20th DB.

She was unsure about any classes at all for the remainder of this year. She also indicated that she had no information at all about new hire classes for all of next year but that anything could change at a moments notice.

She said they would be in touch by phone at least once per month going into the future or that I could call them directly with any questions or for an update.

Once new hire classes do begin, she indicated that we would be invited out of the pool in order of interview date starting with those who interviewed first (beginning of August ??) that were part of the October 20th DB. I interviewed in early September.

Again, to everyone swimming in the pool, congratulations on making it this far!! We are all very, very fortunate.
