I interviewed on that day as well and have not heard a thing. I also spoke with someone else who interviewed on that same day (29th) and he too is awaiting an answer. Apparently, the urgency was to fill-up the remaining spots for the September 24th class which they were able to do with some of the guys who interviewed on the 28th.

If anyone hears anything, please be sure to share with the group if if it is unfavorable news. That's certainly better than nothing...Thanks!!!

 

Nothing here yet either. Does anyone know of anyone in the Aug 28th or 29th interview class that has gotten a rejection letter or a pool letter/ call? It seems that the only people to hear anything thus far were offered the sept 25th class.
