Yeah you're right. I'm reading into this too much. Thanks for the reply.

Hey all, having been through the interview process and doing multiple interview preps I've gotten to see the benefits. However, it seems to me like applicants could further their preparation using some online resources. I realize no interview prep is a complete comprehensive solution but any additional resources to take the stress out of the process would certainly have been of benefit to me. I'm considering building an online resource for interviewees to further prepare. This particular solution would probably be a place to review HR type questions, obtain knowledge test information outlines backed up by real resources, review known knowledge test questions, and provide a detailed review of the cog test. Not sure if this type of solution would be of benefit to anyone thats why I'm posting here. If interested please take a minute to click the link below and fill out the attached 10 question form. If not disregard. Thanks for your time.

Sounds good and all but all that stuff is already floating around in the gouges so how would it be any different?

I understand some people out there had gouge for the technical question portion of the interview, and I apologize if this question is redundant, but does anyone know where I can find it. I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

Tunes, pertaining to the knowledge portion of the interview your right it is out there. The thing that I found when I was studying for the interview was that much of what was on the gouge was flat out wrong. The difference would be that this resource would be comprehensive, interactive, and most importantly a correct version of the gouge. This version would also list a source with a link for every answer so if someone wanted to look directly at the source to confirm it they could do so.

This would also be a place for people to think about and organize their library of "stories" so to speak. I know that when I was studying for the interview I ended up with tons of paper gouge because I wanted to look at every possible question. I remember constantly thinking to myself "If I had a place to organize everything online this would be so much easier" That thought ultimately became the idea for a website that would accomplish those tasks. I'm not saying its the next google, just saying that it would have been beneficial for me when I was preparing. If enough people agree I'll invest the resources to build it.

based on taking the time to correct the wrong answers on the gouge i'd say it's worth it.

Thanks for that advice! Took the file to a local print shop and they did it up pretty nice for about 5 bucks! Appreciate the help!

Unless they train 270 in one month, it won't be September. April CJO's still waiting for class & August has already been called. If they keep up the 60/month rate I would say a July CJO is looking at January/February. If they go back to 120/month, you're looking at November or later. I think AK and the crew is being overly optimistic to keep people on the string. Guys are getting multiple offers these days.

I'm hoping for late September, expecting October, and prepared for November
