All,

I've been seeing all the folks here that are looking at interviewing and getting hired. Just thought I'd chime in...

If you look at the record you are NOT all there to be hired. They are going to hire 4 people per interview day. You have to do some digging, but that is what you'll find time and time again. Basically you are also competing against folks in your own "group". In other words they will have a mix...some mil, some civ, some other. They will only hire 2 mil, 1 civ and 1 other.

So, go in and do the best you can, but realize if they don't hire you it's probably nothing YOU did. It's just the way they are hiring...if you were outscored on the online test and then maybe outscored on the writing test then you have a long road ahead of you.

Also I think this is why they are seeing folks quit shortly after they come on. They might have not been as good as previous folks or anything else...they just got the best score on their interview day.

Anyway just thought I'd give a little bit of insight for those on their way to the interview...
Gas,

This is neither true, nor appropriate. There have been entire groups that have been hired and some that have not. They will take who they want, if you get an interview the job is yours to lose.

Good luck everyone.
