Ya, I almost forgot about the test you had to take to get the interview. I scored 90-ish something I think. It took about one year from application in summer 1987 until I was hired on in the fall of 1988.
They offered a September class, but I'd just bought a house literally days before, so I deferred until the Oct 5 class. I didn't know how important that could be for seniority then !!!
