Point being, they were against mandatory vaccinations for existing employees. I will absolutely grant they mandated it for new employment, but I surmise they aren’t hard over on that.
They were for some federal mandates, not private employers.

I know that, and once again you are missing the point. When, in the broader environment, the mandates came to a collective and sudden halt, the company completely abandoned its pursuit of any internal mandate (along with a huge number of other private employers). They immediately halted the adjudication of all pending waiver requests.

That action on the company's part gives some insight into thier actual, internal thinking. And applying that thinking to new hire vaccine waivers, it is my opinion they are likely amenable to a reasonable request for accommodation. IMO.

If any new hires have any personal experience with this, one way or the other, please share so others can benefit from actual ground truth.

Same problem. I left messages, they would call me back when I was flying. We went round and round until we finally connected.

I failed first invite. Then prepped with Cut-e for the cog and used Career Takeoff for the personality test. Both were great. Career Takeoff supposedly has 100% success Good luck!.

I got my 2nd invite just shy of 7 months from my first. Good luck!

Do you automatically get an email at 6 months to try again? I'll be in training so I won't be able to take a few days off to practice for it. The first time they just gave me a 7 day notice.
It took almost 7 months to get the 2nd invite. But was the same as the first time in that I had 7 days to take it.

Assessment invite 5/9, assessment link 5/10, took assessment 5/11 and TBNT, apply in 6 months on 5/19. Feeling pretty beat up but trying to keep my chin up as much as possible. Used RST. Did I see someone mentioned a Facebook group for those who got the re-apply in 6 months?

I too am using RST. did you see something on the assessment you felt you weren’t prepared for? I am very unimpressed with RST for the amount of money they are charging for the service.

24 hours ago I would've told you no, beyond one specific test that I had heard was essentially the same as on RST, but about 40% faster. Now I am not so sure. I studied hard and felt confident when I took the assessment. If I'm lucky enough to get another invite come November, I might see what other products are out there. There's no denying just how expensive RST is.
